UK F1 coverage to return to the BBC !!!

Martin Brundle only please. The rest can go off and make an ITV equivilent of Top Gear, probably called "Naff Gear" in which James Allen, Louise Goodman and Ted Kravitz sit on a sofa talking about cars and saying the word "c*ck" on TV.
I think DC will retire from GP and Join Martin in the commentary box, he'll have to learn to curb his language on live telly though.

I'm with everyone else, GP without adverts, as it should be :)

Signed, good one. It would be great to get it back.

Lets hope they leave Blundell behind as he says nothing ever of any consequence and cannot get a sentence right. Also they need to leave the rubbish programmers as the chat between Hamilton and HK was so bad and they were so embarrassed, it was so bad.

Ben Edwards and DC could be great. Please no James A either.

They should bring Charlie Cox in :D

Best news i've heard in ages!!! And yes I hope they bring The Chain back, none of that rubbish that the ITV play on their intro please!!

EDIT: Signed the petition - I do hope they go through with it, afterall when BBC got Premiership highlights back from ITV they brought back the classic Match Of The Day theme...

Definately, I can't stand him...

Keep Brundle and get Ben Edwards in, but please, no Martin Haven either!

Agree 100% with you there.. maybe take Louise Goodman along though..

Holly Samos should be promoted as well. She does excellent interviews and gets straight to the point without watering down her questions.

If Steve Rider doesn't come back to the Beeb then who's going to present F1? Hopefully not Suzi Perry, she can stick with 2 wheels as far as I'm concerned because that's where her passion lies and a reason why I make an effort to watch MotoGP these days.

Can't think of anyone else who can present F1 with enthusiasm.

I reckon they'll move everyone over onto the Beeb. Most of the production team signed up with ITV contracts when the Beeb lost F1 coverage.

What would be utterly ghastly is the thought on the part of the BBC's bosses 'Cars = Someone from Top Gear'.
