Channel 4 has taken over the terrestrial viewing for Formula 1 after BBC opted out of the contract.

I love F1 and am a bit dubious as to how successful this will be. However they have stated there will be no adverts during race time (thank god)

Yesterday they officially revealed the presenting team......

David Coulthard, Mark Webber, Alain Prost, Alex Zanardi, Susie Wolff, Karun Chandhok, Eddie Jordan and Bruno Senna; alongside seasoned live presenters and journalists Steve Jones, Ben Edwards and Lee McKenzie.

It also says Guy Martin will be making appearances

Seems reasonable but I just feel there are far too many restrictions these days. Who wants to see drivers penalised for putting one wheel over a white line?

So P3 and Qualifying today...

 

Not sure how well he (Lewis) will do this race. He will either ....
1) Go all out and risk blowing the engine and lose the race...or..
2) Nurse it and risk losing out to Rosberg
3) Push Rosberg off the track and go on to win....
I go for option 3 personally.....LOL

Well P3 started and Lewis may be under investigation for an unsafe release from the pit. Nearly collided with Grosjean....

Down to Mercedes that....maybe planned Horrified


Well I know it didn't go down well with Mercedes that Lewis went to Charlie Whiting about the rules on lifting when on double yellow flags. The feeling is, it's ok to do that if it was another team....but this was akin to 'dobbing your team mate in'.....I would agree with that if honest. Not playing a team game....and Lewis did go on to win....Confused
