Don't need to so much when we have THE idiot in the commentary box. Had to laugh (again) at Croft getting all excited in Q3 about Perez' lap in the 26s - announcing it like it was the first we'd seen that fast - until Martin pointed out that it was slower than a couple of the 26s laps in Q2.

Good to have Danica back - good American connection for the races in North America.

Ah was it? That's great! Anyone who views the Indycar coverage will be aware of his quality. He and TBell make a good analyst pairing alongside Leigh Diffey.

Yeah, saw that last night. Very pleased to see the progress she has made. She's obviously a very determined lady, and with great family support.

I enjoyed it. But the footage of the Bandini accident, even though I’ve seen it before, remains horrific.

That's not really anything to do with the broadcasters though.

Sorry to nitpick but if we're going to criticise safety standards, let's do that in a separate thread!

Donington Park has a bronze of Williamson outside the circuit, all thanks to Tom Wheatcroft, who helped bring on his short lived F1 career. Could have been one of the greats, especially after his successful F3 career

I thought I heard one of the commentators saying that Monaco still utilises the local production and not FOM's?
