I also find him to be entertaining. He is animated and enthusiastic. I just wish he was a little easier to understand.

The other commentators do a very good job of getting their ideas across. I just wish he was a bit easier to understand.

Problem with Davide Valsecchi

I have been listening to Davide Valsecchi for a while now and always find that it takes almost my full concentration to parse out what he is saying about the racing in his comments. His very heavy Italian accent is a bit much. I am a citizen of the US and don't need for the man to speak with a mid-w...

Don't think I would want to be Carlos going into turn 1 tomorrow. I could very easily see a repeat of turn 1 at COTA last week. You know that Max will be throwing the car down the inside past the apex of the turn.

Re: 2024 Austrian Grand Prix Race Thread

Good race but I was not enjoying listening to Davide Valsecchi before and after the race.

We need someone who speaks a more neutral version of English. Davide's energetic delivery plus a very thick Italian accent requires more than a bit of concentration to get all of what he is trying to say.

Very good performances from Hamilton, Sainz, and Norris today. Perez outdid himself against Verstappen who did merely okay on his first and second runs of Q3. Leclerc continues to disappoint, what is going on with him?
Can't decide if Carlos has stepped up or if Charley is slacking off.
