Honestly the bit with Ted and Martin now was so scripted it was cringeworthy. Ted tried to make a joke and Martin just shrugged it off to get back to his script. He seems a bit uptight all round to be honest, he seemed much more relaxed on the bbc with his mate DC. Damon and Davidson are being criminally underused too.

Btw, these are FOCA, not FIA. FIA are longer and more detailed ones.

Is that the time of our lives program? Watched that last night, it was really good.

They're playing the FIA 1991 Season Review atm, it had the FIA jingle at the beginning.

Well, again, it's not the official review, but rather cut-down version, it's missing a lot of footage from Official FIA 1991 Season Review.

Watching it now. It really is pretty awful. Was tempted to put subtitles on and mute it.

Just watching the F1 show. Schumacher couldn't wait to get away from her, and the way she knelt down to Perez and spoke to him like he was 5 - cringeworthy.

Liking the channel generally but she isn't a patch on Lee McKenzie

Now this is why we pay our licence fees. BBC4 has shot an hour-long documentary on Gordon Murray which intersperses his extraordinary 40-year history designing some of the greatest-ever road and race cars with the story of his current mission to turn the car world on its head – again – with his radical T25 city car and the i-Stream factories that will build it.

The film has been made by Mark Stewart Productions: Mark is Jackie’s son, and from the moment an early ‘70s Gordon Murray-era Brabham F1 car bursts sideways through a corner, you know you’re in the hands of editors who understand cars. As we saw with Senna, the period F1 footage is sensational and Ron Howard is going to have to work hard to better it in Rush, his forthcoming film about the Hunt-Lauda rivalry in the same era.

Here it helps to balance the rather less exciting footage of modern Murray trundling around airfields in odd-looking prototypes of his new car, but cutting back and forth between F1 and T25 makes the point that Murray is bringing the same utterly unfettered thinking to this little road car as he did to his race cars.

.....

How to Go Faster and Influence People: the Gordon Murray Story will be shown on BBC4 (was scheduled for Easter Sunday - exact broadcast date tbc)
