Hmm tough one. 1950-60 was a dangerous era, but also an era with cars and circuits that separated the men from the boys.

61-73 is one where so much changed first you had the 1.5 litre formula, then the 3 litre, then the introduction of wings.

74-82 was a really competitive era, although by 82 it had got really dangerous.

83-93 was also competitive, with safety a lot better than it had been and with refuelling banned in 84, was how racing should be.

94-2005 had it's moments, 97 was probably the best year of the bunch, but the racing was taken away by refuelling. And then there was the grooved tyres and reintroduction of TC

2006-13 saw the introduction of V8s. Not quite as exciting as the V10s, but at least the racing improved slightly when they got rid of refuelling and traction control and went back to slicks.

2014-21 the hybrid era. Hasn't exactly lived up to it's promise, mainly Merc dominating, although still had enough exciting racing going on, although the gimmicks have been a bit much

On balance I will go for 83-93
