It's pretty dire. As I don't have a Sky subscription I don't have much choice, if I want a race commentary. |

I'm trying out F1TV. It's interesting. It isn't bad so far but it has lacked personality a bit.

I can't be bothered with Sky either, no need to for me.

Doomed to listen to Qualifying on Radio 5. I cannot believe the lack of grasp of the implications of an early red flag. I assumed Jack Nichols was some kid who has been used because he is cheap - turns out he is a grown up. Jeez. Now droning on about WD40 DURING QUALIFYING!!!!

Just heard Coulthard say “this is the great thing about F1 , people can get up close and personal with the action”. WHAT?!!! A more elitiest Sport I cannot think of !!!

Gonna give a shout out to Sky for getting Bernie Collins, the strategist most recently from Aston Martin.
Obviously not massively experienced on camera, but her comfort level clearly grew over the FPs and Qually. Very positive contributions, really added to the coverage so far...Looking forward to her input during the race. |

I don't have sky, think it expensive. But having watched the last two races on ch4, there transmission is getting more annoying. I watched last night's transmission, and about every 10 minutes of action, they went into a commercial break. These breaks seem to be getting longer, on average 6/7 minutes. It is ridiculous. 2 laps to go, then a break
I know they rely on these, but why so many? |

Not sure, but I think they are only allowed to show a small period of actual racing, so they extend the programme with adverts.

Yeah but the breaks were positively oppressive in this show. I didn't count them, but there must have been what, 7 or 8?

Possibly better than the actual race though.
