Formation of the break is one of the interesting things about bike racing. Particularly on a sprint stage or breakaway stage. But it's something that we usually don't get to see as it happens.
Most sports will change things within the sport to make it more interesting. They will change the rules. For example, the NBA just decided to limit time outs to improve the pace of the game. Baseball is considering a number of rule changes to increase the pace of games. And so forth. The NFL changes its rules all the time.
As far as I can tell cycling never changes anything to make it more interesting. For example, make the teams smaller. Get rid of race radios.
The bicycle industry in the US is suffering. Bicycle use by the young is tanking. The future of cycling looks to be very poor.
