According to the Times this morning it looks as though the Hamster is in line for the lead role Is that a good thing? F1 does Top Gear. Or if Top Gear does F1. If the BBC is serious about F1 then it needs to be serious about it's coverage. Hammond is a great TV personality but has no backgroud in the sport. Brundle is great and knows what he is talking about and hopefully will transfer across. As for Blundell, he mangles the language too much for my taste and as for the Cock, well I think it's already been said - good riddance (hopefully). My dream commentary partnership would be Brundle and John Watson, both knowledgable and been there and done that kind of guys, perhaps with Hindy giving the overview. In the end though I guess that there will be a showbiz approach to satisfy the masses and motorsport enthusiasts will be left with what they have always been in recent years - not enough for them. |

Wrong time to change jobs, I just left the BBC Thursday, But I will however try and get some insider knowledge from a couple of petrol heads I had worked with.
Keep Brundell on the commentry
Put Hamster in the pits and on the grid.

Peter, where did you see the reports of the TG team appearances for F1?
Is there a reasonably priced F1 car?

Following on from Peter's post as he mentions good 'ole 'Mac. How about starting with 'Dreams', then progress to ' Go your Own Way' and even 'Don't Stop. By the end, the Beeb agreed £200m with the poisoned dwarf with no 'competitive tendering'!!!! It is paramount now we get back the updated version of the theme 'The Chain' (but LOUDER and LONGER) this time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Xz_i4yCLikOtherwise it is wasted money - it is our lisense fee after all. |

Bernie and Max wont have a say as to commentry or production team, as this will be a BC issue, but given both their clout would it surprise you if they did! It wouldn't me!
Wot a scream for readingor film coverage the at crashing would make for reading or veiwing, once word of mouth got around the veiwing rating would rise a fair bit. As for the popularity stakes of the trio, the gests of said parties would love em to death or spit theout like pork grissle.
