Sky are paying lot of money for cars to drive around in a procession come into  the pits change tyres and carry on driving in a pre-ordained order.

The thing that really pisses me off (oddly more so than the fact I won't be watching it any more) is that the BBC are dropping it due to the fact that they are short of money. Then why the fuck are they paying half the money they would have done anyway to screen the races to pointlessly screen half? It's an absolute joke.

It made me laugh, when SSN announced they had secured the rights for F1. They started introducing the drivers like Vettell and Hamilton to the viewers as if F1 had just been invented!

I've just got into F1, well last season that is, and now this one.  I've enjoyed the BBC coverage because of the commentating team and the way they present the races to avoid the 'procession of cars' effect and reflect the superb driving and the choices the teams have to make, about appropriate tyres for conditions, for instance and how many pitstops to fill up.

I'll really miss it!

Good one, Jensen!
