Sky TV lining up Mansell as pundit?

[John S]

Our Nige 'Red 5' with Crofty & Brundle sounds good if we must pay.

Former World Champion Nigel Mansell could be part of Sky Sports' Formula One broadcast line-up next year, according to a report.
 
The BBC and Sky will share the hosting rights in Britain from next year, with the pay channel televising all the grands prix live and the Beeb showing only half of them live.
 
Although Sky is yet to reveal their broadcast team for 2012, it has been widely reported that Martin Brundle - who is currently the lead commentator for the BBC - will be paired with BBC Radio 5Live's David Croft in the commentary booth.
 
The Daily Mail's Charles Sale claims 1992 World Champion Mansell could join the team as a pundit.
 
'Sky Sports, who are expected to announce their F1 line-up for next year's coverage after the Brazilian Grand Prix, have former world champion Nigel Mansell in their sights as lead pundit,' Sale wrote.

Nigel is one of my racing heroes but as a pundit he could possibly be the most boring choice possible!
