Just really hope the BBC don't **** things up.
Back to the old days of it being aired 5 minutes before the race. Hope they don't start swapping channels either. 1 week it's on BBC1, next race on BBC2. As Eastenders is on 1, and Snooker is on 2, they dump it to BBC3 or 4
ITV did a superb job. They moved the coverage on, and apart from the adverts was a very enjoyable watch. Some weeks the build-up was better than the race itself.
The BBC have the opportunity to move it on even further. Lets hope they do.

Hopefully TSN will now switch to use the BBC feed, as they used to use the ITV one, which is far, far better than the Speed coverage.
Shame we'll still have advert breaks here though, as I cannot see TSN, let alone Speed, showing the GP all the way through.

Looks like a good line up on paper. We shall have to see how it all works out. Really pleased that we will have Murray Walker's expertise on hand as well as his entertainment value.

Glad Coulthard is involved, he seems articulate and witty and to have Murray back, even in small doses just puts the icing on the cake of the no adverts factor !
I will watch all the races now and not mind paying my licence fee, for just that and Top gear.

At least it looks as though we wont have to put up with that woman with all the piston rings down her arm asking obvious questions. I bet the drivers run away if they see her coming!

I am surprised that you say that, he always seems to get a lot of good pitside information.

Because he slags off any team, live on air who do not agree with his stategic opinion. He says things only like, 'Well he is now filled up to the end of the race!' When he has no fact to base it on. Then, when the driver comes in for another pit-stop, he acuses the team of not knowing what they are doing!
