Sky to show final F1 test at Barcelona live

[MarkG]

I just knew when I read the thread title, there'd be posters posting bitter tosh about Sky. Maybe a way to look at it (your problem with Sky) , is that normal people are working for Sky and are glad to have an income to feed the family?

Or maybe, just watch F1 on BBC only, keep it to yourself, and feel satisfied and smug that you'll go to heaven one day

What utter rubbish!!

"Normal" people (whatever that is) are working hard in all sorts of organisations in order to "feed the family".

Does that mean we can't take a view on their employers? I don't think so

The Scottish reporter doing the update at 9-9.15 tonight totally ******ed it. Upset Kimi, talking over other reporters. Bring back the lady from the first test please.

Also Teds great value, keep that up.

That Scottish guy is weird isn't he? Was he there last season?

He started an interview last night with: "...yep, always good to talk to Romain Grosjean. Especially as this is the last interview of the day..."

What does that even mean?

[p-matt]

He was there last year. He has a touch of the Simon Lazenby's about him - doesn't really understand F1, frequently uses the wrong words and struggles to express himself eloquently.

Ted's been brilliant as always. He's more knowledgable about the technical side now. But I'm sure everyone will still fawn over Gary Anderson

[Knowlesy]

Ted is alright, definitely improved in a way that, say, James Allen never did.

[Born Racer]

Yeah, I never quite understood why you seemed to have it in for him a bit, Knowlesy.

[Knowlesy]

I have never had it in for him per se.

When he first started he was awful, I mean really bad. It felt like some kind of insane ITV double act with James Allen.

He got a bit better over the years and he is bearable now.

I don't think he is wonderful as many seem to think he is. One has to have standards. He still blurts out utter nonsense from time to time and his hairstyle irritates me.

[Born Racer]

Gary Anderson's a great find, but they need to turn his mic up. I find him hard to understand.

[Knowlesy]

Hmmm. Doesn't really work this coverage

Firstly you don't get to see the morning session for some reason.

Second there is very little information to supplement the pictures.

They also should have sorted out some onboard cameras. But hey, this is a start I suppose.
