How are they going to film the Terrace straight at Crystal Palace? It's wildly different scenery there now, and photoshopping out the radio controlled car track in the paddock is going to be very difficult. I work in visual effects and it's going to be a big job. I'll bet they establish the scene o...

I wonder what on earth they will give him if he wins a championship I wonder what they could have possibly given Micheal for his championships They gave him the F2004 or the 248 or something, didn't they?

Am I the only one who think Ant Davidson is been under used.....I would like to see him do the grid walk with Mark Yep. The reason Brundle is good on the grid walk is his wit, knowledge and respect for the drivers... Davidson seems to exhibit the same characteristics. A little aside - Jake was a me...

I think sky did a better build up show this week, they seem to have listened to any feedback and taken it on board, so well done Sky for that. The interviews, however, still weren't that good, they need to learn what questions are relevant. The post race programming still not that good, although I ...

a driver could be a the pit entrance and come on the radio to say 'I'm boxing, get me some options' and the crew would be ready for him before he reaches his pit box. He may get a big telling off after the race and that's when mistakes are made, but he could still do it.

Well Prost aparantly had a clause in this Williams contract regarding Senna, but it was put to one side thanks to the sponsors. Mansel had a number1 contract at Ferrari, until Prost (I think) came onboard and it pushed to one side. So even if he does have a clause in his contract, it can be over rul...

Everyone always makes fun of Jenson for his aweful head and shoulders ad, but at least he has good hair to begin with, unlike a certain German we all know

There was something about the way he sang ballads that made you feel it more than others. And god knows how he managed to sing whilst pulling some of these moves

Sorry for being serious, but a fridge caused that? Do they not have RCD's in Malaysia? You'd think it'd be a simple safety feature to have in any world class facility.

Back onto Sepang tomorrow, Schi is a great starter and he's not been that high up the grid since his comeback. With the Merc being strongest in the first stint last weekend, I'm expecting at least a 3 way fight for the first corner and a really exciting start to the race. Can't wait

You're probably just going through one of those times that everyone goes through once in a while. Just got to look at the things that do make you happy and try to remember them when you're feeling down. For me it's watching F1 with my friends, playing GRAW with them online (drinking usually involved...

I think that politically we should not go there because of their practices, but I think that as a event it is fine, because the track is great. Also F1 is a global sport, and when they visit instead of the drivers having to do sponsor events, they should be excused and should bring awareness to the...

Sorry, not on topic..... Lynard Skynard, couple of things: 1 - if you have no decent arguments to put forward to prove your point, then there's not much point in keeping on with it. 2 - if not one person is agreeing with you, you may be wrong. 3 - if you do not take any counter arguments, or opinion...

Okay you have ads in the run up to Practice. On the beeb how much run up was there to practice? None, but they didn't have a channel dedicated to F1. Don't get me wrong, I'll still be watching practice on Sky F1, I would just have thought that with the platform available to them they could have giv...

You're right, I have no social life!

I have work and when I'm not at work I have my daughter. But I wouldn't change it for the anything..... except maybe work

The other thing that surprised me was just how much advertising there is, given that Sky Sports are pay channels (and expensive ones, at that). As you may have gathered, we just have Freeview in our house, so I suppose I'm not used to Sky, but I had expected to see less advertising than on the free...

The thing with HRT imo, is they had a rough first year, then messed up the start of last year (beat Virgin both years, although people often forget that when belittling them) and then had a huge management overhaul, moved premises, lost an experienced principal (with all his equipment) and near enou...

For me, I support a main driver and the team that he's in. So in my eyes, both are important. If my driver doesn't win the WDC but the team wins the WCC then great, he's helped the team to win in so either is a win for me.

Ok people, choose, do you want: a. Tobacco sponsorship or b. Porn sponsorhip ? I think some viewers are perhaps way too puritan. I'd put DUREX advertisement on the HRT cars because... "nice guys finish last". And Pedro de la Rosa is certainly a nice guy. Well, I'm a smoker who watches porn! I don't...

It's not really an issue of being offended by it, surely. It's that porn is for losers . . . a bit like F2 at the moment it would seem. What's the implication . . . that all F2 viewers are w**nk*rs ?

on race pace, how far off the leaders laptimes were they ? they did 1:33.1 & 1:33.2 in p3, but judging by the fact that both drivers did worse times in q1, I'm cursing that was quali set-up. Using the Marusia's as the closest comparison, their fastest raving lap was roughly 3.7% slower than their q...

The Monaco one was for Graphic Design - Programme Content Sequences category.

Lapped cars should go into the pit lane and wait for the snake to pass, ok they are another lap down but really it's down to them to not be lapped. Or the saftey car leads all non-lapped cars through the pitlane whilst the lapped cars are allowed down the straight to unlap themselves? That's a good...
