as for Jake Humphrey... i remember him doing xfactor style things on the old cbbc shows.. hes got that same james allen-esque side i think... you might get annoyed!

They recon though DC will not be at the races but in the studio.

Thank god though no adverts and no James Allen.

Mark Blundell at the moment always says ferrari not lewis.

Jake Humphrey, that is enough to ruin any lineup. If he actually knows something about the sport he is presenting this time I may be able to put up with him though.

Hang on! That's you isn't it Dan??

At least the guys commentating know something about the sport, and that Lee McKenzie person at least comes from a motorsport family, and has been involved with it recently. And DC will soon put that Humphrey bloke in his place if he knows @#$%& all.

I'm just pleased that David Croft isn't involved. For me, he's been more annoying than James Allen has when he's been doing GP2.

Decent line up. Could have been better. Should be an improvement, but then that wasn't hard. At least Brundle's still involved. :D

Well Brundle says he has not signed yet.

But either way, YAY For Brundle!

Best news of the day :D

Glad to see Ryder, Blundell and Allen are to go and i was hoping that DC would feature somewhere in the mix so good news on that front. Can't see why they are employing Jake Humphrey though, strange choice.

Ben Edwards would be a good choice.

Seems like a decent line up - I was actually impressed with Jake Humphrey when he fronted the Beebs coverage of NFL International Series and the Superbowl, so i think he may surprise a few people - although i still would of chosen Steve Rider over him.


Glad they are (hoping) to keep Brundle as well!

Defo! It's a total relief to hear Martin will be continuing, tho it's not surprising - the Beeb know how popular he is.
Great to hear about DC too - another obvious choice.
Allen finally gone, THANK GOD!!

Not so sure about the rest of the choices though. I know nothing about Jonathan Legard so I'll reserve judgement on him. Hiring an ex-CBBC presenter sounds pretty dodgy. Lee McKenzie sounds alright, but they might need an additional person in the pitlane.
They should get Suzi Perry on board!

As long as Brundle's commentating, Allens out and F1 decide to use some of their TV millions to invest in HD equipment I'm happy, and 2 of that 3 criteria is already filled :D

Its already been said bbc have a much smaller budget than ITV did so will see how it goes.

I think one of the things that will go is the hour before the race build up which tbh I dont think many people will miss.

no Louise!!

Not too keen on that random CbbC guy - he seems jolly unprofessional and what's that Lee lady got that Louise doesn't?!

Good to see DC on-board, I hope he continues to be honest in his interpretations of situations.

I'll be sad to see James Allen go but hopefully he'll remain on some of ITV's other Motorsport coverage

Brundle and DC in the commentary box would have been hilarious, but I suppose we need someone up there who is a pure commentator and not an ex-driver. Nonetheless, it's excellent to see DC involved.

I like Lee McKenzie as a presenter. She sticks to the important facts - what happened in free practice, what the paddock gossip is, etc. a lot like Brundle. No idea about Jake Humphrey so I'll reserve judgement on him.

Thank God Rider and Blundell won't be wasting oxygen on screen again, and I'm also mighty relieved that the name "Damon Hill" hasn't even been mentioned. Ted Kravitz is a great pitlane reporter, have you noticed he's always extremely quick to radio up to the commentary box to give information on an incident or a story? His input would be missed. His pre-race review of free practice is also a really good feature.

All sounds good. However I am dissapointed about not having Ted Kravitz, I think he is perfect for his job. And he always seems to get the important information.
