But Britain's Sky Sports, who - if you haven't noticed - now works very closely with Formula One Management, is biting the bullet and sending its intrepid team of reporters to the start of what could become one of the weirdest F1 seasons of all time. So far, we've heard that the German broadcaster RTL - and possibly one or two other television broadcasters, including the Hungarians - isn't making the trip to the opening races. So far, everyone (especially a denial-struck Liberty Media, whose FWONK share price is sinking faster than a stone) seems to be putting an oddly brave face on what widespread lockdowns and quarantines and a highly contagious disease might still mean for arguably the most famous worldwide travelling circus this year.īut it is beyond question that getting from Europe to Australia and then Bahrain and Vietnam (spoiler alert: Vietnam ain't gonna happen) and beyond will be about as straightforward as listening to an Italian lawyer explain the technical ins and outs of how Ferrari's dodgy 2019 engine worked. The media circus is embedded with the teams and many of them don't say what they should, for fear of being isolated.As coronavirus and the associated and disproportionate hysteria grabs Formula 1 (and the world) by the you-know-whats, it's worth having a little think about who might be missing in Melbourne and beyond. Always cautious so as not to upset anyone who would revoke his after-race party invite.Īnd I think that's an issue in general. Prima Donna Buxton would put me off the sport completely. The saving grace though, is that at least he is not Will Buxton.

At many points in a GP you'll see a strategy developing and he'll be away with the fairies about how great a car looks over the kerbs or how wonderful driver x is, or the struggle Williams have (ohhh it's every race for the last 3 years). The other issue, is that if you pay attention to what he is saying you'll notice he he says the same thing at each GP. And by that I mean he will speak for 5 minutes without saying a damn thing. I've watched races where he hasn't participated and didn't even notice. He's great at getting info from the teams though and that's his job. He doesn't pretend to be a tech geek, he asks others for that. Fair amount is ok but even for brits it's over the top. Crofty, Johnny and rest of the crew are just cringe worthy and notoriously British driver biased. I like A Davidson, Brundle and Rachel Brooks (most measured of all). It’s a British broadcaster but sadly half of u across the world have to listen to their unprofessional crap on the worldwide broadcast

They spend 30min discussing what Hamilton did in P15 and didn’t discuss anything of the other action, just really tired of how they focus almost 99% of they’re Air time on russel, Hamilton, Norris and Mercedes. Some of there pundits are good, particularly Ted, but so many of them are completely biased towards both sides, and just entirely crap. Is there any possible way of forcing sky sports f1 out of F1 broadcasts
