There must have been a speed at which they could stay on the track, the drivers should have the ability to adapt to that speed.

F1 has been got at by the health & safety muppets. "Motor Racing is Dangerous". It says that at every circuit I've been to and in every programme I've bought. Well if these guys can't cope then they shouldn't be driving.

Senna would have double lapped the lot of them.

Senna didn't like rain either.

2:16 is straight to the point

I can't abide Legard, he's almost as crap as James Allen.

It winds me up that someone who is meant to be a professional makes so many mistakes. I don't doubt that in the heat of the moment it is easy to make mistakes but sod it, he's paid to do a job and he clearly can't.

My main annoyance with him this weekend was after Barrichello overtook Alonso, Legard was still spouting crap about how Alonso in 4th was holding up Rubens in 5th even though Rubens was now in 4th and was gapping Alonso.

I liked Allen more than I like Legard, but I thought Legard was better this week than last. Murray was famous for making mistakes but nobody really minded it when it was him. The replay thing was quite funny though

I'd like David Croft and Martin Brundle to do the commentary ideally (I don't think Brundle and Davidson would work - you need one expert and one commentator really).

Glaucus · 06-04-2009, 12:08

Just swap to R5L, the commentary is a million times better than anything taht annoying brundle could do.

Just press red button, then you ge a few options for different commentary.

Burble · 06-04-2009, 12:14

I'm yet to watch a race live and you don't get the options when watching a recording. When I do manage to watch a race live I will listen to the R5L commentary though.

divine · 06-04-2009, 12:17

AFAIK, unless you mess about running two browsers etc. you can't do that when watching on iPlayer (live) either.

I still vote that next time this kind of thing happens, they are all forced to stop their vehicles, jump out and finish the race on foot

"Brawn GP is under investigation by the stewards after BMW complained that Jenson Buttons car was equipped with a rudder and propeller"

lol

The only thing really getting on my jubblies about this year's GP is the amount of whinging and bloody moaning going on about how rubbish this is and what a farce that is. If it's causing people that much turmoil, don't ruddy watch it!!!

I'm just happy that there aren't adverts every 25 seconds anymore

I'd have to say that personally for me, FIA interventions and other shenanigans aside, on track its been a bloody exciting start, and I am really enjoying things so far.

Couldnt agree more with the no ad breaks though! Although I do find myself sat there waiting for a break so I can run to the loo etc. Brundles paused for the odd moment too, as if he is waiting for the break to kick in.
