My submission
- Speedway
Four riders on thin motorbikes get drawn into one of four gates at the start. Two from each team
By the first corner the order does not change for the four laps of the race. Or I have never seen it change
If there is a crash, the thing starts again.
This happens for 15 heats and then team A beats Team B
What am I missing?

The overtaking
there is overtaking? I watched six heats last night and got bored, they went round corner 1 then finished in that order 4 laps later.

Granted it's not the entire sport, but I've never got the 20k/50k Walk in Athletics. I'm not doubting the athletic ability needed to do it, but it's always seemed a bit pointless. And the judging of when someone doesn't have at least one foot on the ground a bit arbitrary.

I don't get how people can enjoy watching test cricket. 20/20 is just about tolerable but I can't stand watching test cricket.
But on the flip side I enjoy watching golf which I know lots can't stand.

I've even tried playing a Fantasy League to try and get into it, but even that didn't do it.

I remember games in the past spanning 5 days, being dragged out so they could claim a draw despite being xxx runs behind.

I don't get American football either, but I know I'm in the minority here.

Motor Racing.
Loads of ridiculously over paid prima donna's driving round and round a track, when realistically only one or possibly two teams can win any given race.
Why not give them all the same equipment and then we see competitive racing and the best driver will come out on top?

Athletics. Mystifies me when the BBC radio interrupt commentary of Barnsley v Wigan to go and cover some poxy race which isn't even the Olympics. And they go to the event 30 minutes before the start so we have to listen to the pundit guys talk about it as well.
And to top it off they all seem to get knighthoods just for winning one race where they are massive odds on favourite. That doesn't happen to the bloke that opens the scoring at Oakwell.
