    And Georgie Thompson looks like her skull has been scooped out and replaced with the powder from dead foetuses to preserve her ancient papyrus complexion.

      I wish Brundle would have stayed with BBC, their F1 team and coverage was brilliant, hope it doesn't affect that too much not having him on commentary alongside DC
      We managed to rectify it, though, because it now says, "Cook" where it once said "Cock", and "Pass" where it once said "Piss", so it’s slightly less rude.

        I hate F1 but as it's being rammed down my throat by Sky, I've been meaning to ask - how the **** are they going to justify an entire channel devoted to a sport that has one race a week at best? I realise they're gonna show all the testing, qualifying and all that stuff, but what else? Flim-flam? Or will the channel not air all the time? Surely they can't fill it with so much **** that it'll be on 24/7?

            So it's going to be on air all the time?

            Jesus.

            Why didn't they keep the Fleetwood Mac tune? Legal issues? It's totally synonymous with the sport - surely they could've wangled something?

              BBC use The Chain

              Yup, I'm worried about the over exposure / over analysis / low brow hype Sky are likely to give just to fill time on that channel.

              The best thing about F1 on BBC was that the pundits were genuinely brilliant and had direct access to all the big players who would more often than not be interviewed unguarded - complete opposite to the spiky Dalglish fayre we get even if things have gone well. They'd speak to them because they were involved themselves not so long back and were liked by those they interviewed, so you'd get them talking right after events positive or negative.

              Can't see the Sky machine replicating that. This sounds naff, but the BBC team were like people you'd have round your house for the occasion. Sky are just cunts on the tele.

                  i saw the preview show last night (was on sky anytime)

                  i hope the channel is better thn that. At one point they were talking about the calendar for this year and said and by novemberwe will be reaching the climax of a vintage season.

                  so its going to be a vintage season is it?

                    Oh jesus, the Sky season preview was absolute turd. It was exactly what i thought it was going to be - cliche ridden bollocks with absolutely no insight at all.

                    They're clearly taking the direction that because they're new to F1 coverage, their audience is going to be new as well, so they're coming out with ****ing cock nosed bollocks like "The thing about F1 is, its not just about the drivers is it?" "Thats right, there's a whole team of people who provide the driver with that car you see on the grid"

                    Get ta ****, really? A sophisticated piece of cutting edge technology hasn't been crafted and designed by Lewis Hamilton or whoever on his own? You think I'm a thick cunt, Sky, don't you?

                    Oh look, how ITV - a personal / human piece on Mark Webber doing something away from F1. He likes fitba! Look! Wowzzz!

                    If I wanted celebrity base level ****ing **** with no insight or awareness of their audience, who treat their audience with complete contempt, I'll watch Match of the Day. Or Sky's football coverage.

                    **** you very much for ruining F1, the government, the BBC for redirecting funding and Sky for being complete ****ing wallops.

                      Don't watch it then. Just continue to watch BBC and avoid the results. There only going to be about 6 hours delayed. Half will be live anyway.

                        Simple when you put it like that, isn't it! I was really hoping for more, I shouldn't have expected anything else.

                        It'll be straight to BBC for their live races and complete avoidance of anything build up wise on Sky for the live races BBC don't have.

                            Will be sticking with the beeb myself for the live races they show,for the ones they don't Setanta Ireland show all the races live and they use the Beeb commentary feed.

                            One look at that Lazonby fella on Sky and I instantly wanted to smack his smug looking grid.

                                They are never going to fill it with decent stuff. Would love lots of 80s and 90s races
