ITV-F1: The season begins!

From the ITV-F1 Newsletter:

Quote:

David Coulthard, David Richards and Mike Gascoyne are to join Jim Rosenthal and Martin Brundle in a televised studio debate.
They’re going to be discussing everything to do with the new season – and we need your questions.
To get your question into the debate YOU must:

Address your question to either DC, David Richards, or Mike Gascoyne
Leave your full name and where you are from
Make it as short as possible

The programme will be shown on ITV1 from 14.30 - 15.30 on Sunday March 2nd. Please send your questions to studio@itv-f1.com

Let's hope that soon they'll be announcing their qualies

thats the question i will be asking

nameless · 20 Feb 2003, 21:16 (Ref:512778)

to DC : is 2003 your year?

LucaBadoer · 20 Feb 2003, 21:21 (Ref:512782)

wow... season preview show... well done ITV.

Sodemo · 21 Feb 2003, 01:57 (Ref:513018)

wow... just like the one they did in 1997 with Clive James.

Valve Bounce · 21 Feb 2003, 03:16 (Ref:513047)

Well, I sent in my question: Which drivers will take the fight to Michael Schumacher this year.

I signed it Valve Bounce

I won't be able to watch the show from Oz, so if my question comes up, please let me know what the answer is.

**Adam43** · 22 Feb 2003, 10:26 (Ref:514030)

ITV in F1 effort shock!

Cool, at least they are trying. However I'm not sure how much Jim can add to the debate and if he is chairing then lets hope some of the important points don't get lost!

What about "Is there any chance of getting Ben Edwards to commentate?"

Super Tourer · 23 Feb 2003, 07:52 (Ref:514588)

Notice no Ron D .....

sceptic · 23 Feb 2003, 11:13 (Ref:514659)

If they had Ron and DC in the studio together, they'd be accused of pro-McLaren bias again.

**Adam43** · 23 Feb 2003, 11:58 (Ref:514691)

ST. eh? They don't have Peter S. either.

Smokey 6 litre · 25 Feb 2003, 16:48 (Ref:517315)

...are you good enough, Mr Coultard, and do you still have the passion and determination to win a title you should have years ago.

Sato san · 25 Feb 2003, 19:10 (Ref:517464)

imagine asking Ron Dennis a question.......the whole rest of the programme would be taken up just with his answer !

Mr V · 25 Feb 2003, 19:11 (Ref:517465)

Which wouldn't be conducive to the requirements!

Matthopps · 25 Feb 2003, 21:38 (Ref:517643)

If ITV are putting together a half-decent preview show: is this the start of some decent coverage this year (which can be guaranteed), if not decent racing (which can't be guaranteed)?

Thorstone · 26 Feb 2003, 01:13 (Ref:517832)

I did ask Mike Gascoyne will he ever hire in nearest future
Heikki Kovalainen as a driver at Renault f1 team
and Coulthard does he think he will stay at McLaren next two years

**Asp** · 2 Mar 2003, 15:56 (Ref:522397)

So, what did you think.

Good to get a decent interview with Max; good to hear all the differing points of view from the panel. They were quite placid though, not much disagreement and argy bardgy. I really wanted someone to start shouting 'Jerry' at some point!

Bad that they only took 3 questions; and bad that I'm going to expect that all of those VT-features will be repeated at least once during next weekend (knowing ITV); and there's nothing better to get you to sleep at 2am than watching something you've seen before!

Down F0rce · 2 Mar 2003, 16:43 (Ref:522423)

A hole in the head!!!!

Mr V · 2 Mar 2003, 18:13 (Ref:522549)

Glad to see that ITV are going to show live qualifying on Friday as well as saturday!

ParkLife · 2 Mar 2003, 20:53 (Ref:522679)

Oh god, that was possibly the most boring piece of television that I've ever watched. What was the point of that then?

They didn't say a single technical thing about any of the cars.

Where were you last year then?

Damon · 2 Mar 2003, 22:07 (Ref:522785)

It was very dull and typically ITV, basically telling anyone that's likely to care exactly what they already know

.

I just hope pictures, at least, are better this year.

J.McClane · 6 Mar 2003, 20:17 (Ref:526960)

The qualifs are being shown live on ITV at 2:15 am today (sorry tomorrow morning)

Sato san · 6 Mar 2003, 20:29 (Ref:526969)

so whose gonna get up and watch qualifing then ?.......think i will.

Logrence · 6 Mar 2003, 20:32 (Ref:526974)

Get up?

Well us young 'uns up here will be staying up to watch the F1...

You've met the nail on the head, Damon - why do ITV bring you the 'exclusive' snippets of gossip weeks after you've read them on 10-10ths? If I didn't know any better (and I don't), I'd think they were reading the boards and getting their inspiration for the programmes from us!
