I couldn't be arsed to get up but could be arsed to skip through the delay after the red flag, so ended up catching the rest of the race live ;)
The only thing about the switch from BBC1 to BBC2 was that I took a moment to look at the remote control, for a TV bought back when analogue was all we had, and realised just how faded the numbers 1 to 4 are (less so 5 ;) )
Qualifying is now on BBC1 HD which I assume is not proper HD?
Upscaled, and not particularly great. Also about 3 seconds behind SD which will be a nightmare for synchronising with onboard and driver tracker.
Another race that Legard and Brundle appeared a fair bit behind me to spot things happening in the race.
I assumed that the Mclaren's pitted late as a final gamble to be able to catch the cars ahead on fresher tyres, that was the way I red it, but maybe I was wrong but the commentary pair didn't seem to even twig that maybe the idea until 3 or 4 laps later.
As it turned out it didn't work because of all the backmarkers.
I know its probably harder while in the commentary box, but they have observers and more knowledge (So they say) than us, but still seem so slow to pick up on ideas and battles.
Legard was horrible today. Truly horrible
Hopefully his P45 is on the way...Quote:

I sacrificed the dubious benefit of upscaled HD to have Crofty and Ant on the red button. Ant actually annoyed me a little bit today for being a one-man Alonso fanclub, but other than that they were fine.
Post-race forum is a bit chaotic, EJ's been let loose with a mic and all hell's breaking loose.
