Excellent coverage of the first practice Andy, I missed the second practice though.

We watched it last night, and listened to BBC Sports 5. Both did a fine job. When Speed is on, though, I'll listen to their audio. Hobbs, Varsha & Co. are hard to beat.

I agree, I throughly enjoyed this mornings coverage of qualifying. Excellent commentary on the action plus some very interesting snippets in-between. If the rest of the season is going to be this good then I will be a very happy wizzo.


Keep up the great work BBC!  :good:

 Yeah excellent coverage by the Beeb can't wait to see how they handle the race.

 Just one small thing though Eddie Jordan needs to work on not looking bored when the others are conversing.

I heard that Kangaroo TV will carry the Radio 5 coverage this week-end. Having listened to Radio 5 for practice the past two nights, it's be a fine addition to the service.

The coverage as a whole is really promising, I enjoyed listening to the BBC1 coverage much more than I used to the ITV stuff.  Also Legard is a really good commentator and his voice isn't at all grating.
