Derwent is heading for a stewards' enquiry!
It's not being Welsh as I could listen to Cerys Matthews all day!

I think he's done well considering he came in as an outsider. He's definitely grown more and gels well with the pundits, especially DC and Mark and knows the questions to ask the drivers and team bosses. Plus he has a good mix of serious and fun.

Reported here in Oz yesterday as both Herbert and Di Resta gone from the commentary team - personally I think it's a shame, like what both have had to say and think that they both add to the broadcast.

Thats a shame. They will be missed. There are others I would have dropped before either Herbert or Di Resta. Croft being one.

yeah i liked them both as well. Herbert more so as i thought he had a very amicable quality and generally spoke to the drivers in a relaxed way.

but that SKY crew was way too big and a reduction in size might do the broadcast better?

Herbert had been phased out over the last few seasons as Button, Hill and Rosberg became more prominent.

DiResta is a real but understandable loss as he is still a professional driver. Now that Peugeot have their HyperCar up and running doing both WEC and ELMS, his availability was going to be reduced.

If Ant Davidson continues with WEC Commentary on Eurosport and Merc sim driving, and Rosberg remotely appearing at 5 or 6 events, the analysis could be seen as lacking in “recent” F1 drivers at some events.

At least he's done something no one else has done. Get Christian Horner to not want to appear on TV!

I see where Autosport have published the C4 & sky F1 commentry teams for this year. C4 looks unchanged from last year, as I don't watch sky I can't comment.

Gee whiz out and about today so tuned into Radio 5 coverage The level of commentary is just so Hospital radio - or worse it’s mind bending. When they got Hysterical at Stroll going fastest I just had to switch off. Is this the best BBC can do?

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.
