I wholeheartedly agree. I had both Sky and BBC on and was mostly watching the beeb's coverage. All the talk of Brundle leaving BBC because he wanted something technical.... yet Sky is going back in the scenes of Vettel doing kung fu.... waste of 2 hours of pre race build-up. BBC just got to the point and did a great job. Really impressed with Ben and DC in the commentary box, a lot of enthusiasm which I appreciated. Sky need to get rid of Georgie thompson and Simon Lazenby IMO, dragging their production down. So far, BBCF1> SLYF1
