Formula1 2016

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

Yes...but irrelevant now cos he didn't. He ended up where he belonged in 4th. His position 1 second after the start .....He needs to develop a racing mentality and stop cheating...

Not that they really need them (team points, that is)  

[Beenherebefore]

True....but he was obviously not thinking of the team when he made that move.......so is he a true "team player"? If VES hadn't given him room and done a HAM on him then he may not have finished the race.

[MI5]

Prob would have been in deep do do then too with the stewards!

[Cleoriff]

Did anyone see the podium drivers interview post race? Ves was asked about this . He said 'he did not turn..he must have seen me coming. Lewis knows what I mean'.....Lewis had his head down at the time and muttered something unheard....

Nope, missed that....

Probably tried claiming any reward for finding her....

I just don't think he was much of a 'mastermind'....
