I know loads of people who haven't watched motor racing before, and comment just how exciting the show is on Sky.
The trouble is, I know loads of people who do regularly watch other forms of motorsport on TV, and a fair number who make motorsport for TV, and the overwhelming concensus is that Sky aren't just not on the ball, they're not even on the playing field.

And if I thought the live shows were bad, I was truly amazed by how poor their highlights show was.
