I'm more of an F1 fan than a NASCAR girl myself...but I must say, if racing is not a sport, then why does Michael Schumacher train for it PHYSICALLY as if it were? He works out as much physically as any other professional athlete in another sport does.

Going through a race is mentally and physically exhausting. Imagine how you feel after four to six hours of driving. Now imagine doing that 4 to 6 hours at 100+ mph with other cars around you doing the same. Imagine trying to invoke some kind of strategy while doing so.

Racing is a sport.
