    I will miss BBC coverage a lot since it has been a great alternative to the pathetic local coverage.
    Half of the races (and probably half of the team) is not enough.

    Top notch coverage this weekend! What's the name of the little guy next to DC? Awesome commentators, brilliant production and thoroughly entertaining. I'm still not sure as to why Bernie wanted to shift over to Sky Sports, but as an American with limited coverage of F1 I always go to BBC.

    Ben Edwards is that "little guy" - came over from the British Touring Car coverage, but he has previous F1 commentary experience from the dim and distant Eurosport days - 16 years ago, in fact.

    Incidentally, for those who didn't see the red button forum or who didn't know already, Lee McKenzie is anchoring the show for the next two races as Jake is off at some football kickabout in Eastern Europe's equivalent of the Third Reich.

    Anyone seen anything about the respective viewing figures of the two broadcasters? I'd be interested to see how many people have actually bothered signing up to MurdochVision for F1.

    It's not really about signing up 'for F1' as it's available to all HD subscribers it's just part of a range of services.

    True for me if there is a choice of live coverage then it's BBC every time.

    It was the main reason I upgraded to HD. Though in retrospect, by far the best thing about upgrading was getting Sky+.
