In the context of the Sky F1 coverage only the race commentator and pit reporter needs to take the role of a journalist.The rest are pundits.

yeah thats more than fair. actually was thinking more about it as well and typically in sports the commentary features one play by play/race commentator (which is essentially a plain reporting of facts as they occur so they indeed do fit my notion of a journo as you allude to) and the other being the colour commentator (basically the pundit offering insight or instigation).
so upon reflection i both see your point and also agree with it...despite my earlier hot take lol!
