    I had Five Live on, Legard and Brundle nearly tipped me over the edge during the Bahrain borefest and I wasn't going to risk that again. From the tiny amount I've seen of the highlights on the red button I believe I made the right call.

    Agreed I've sometimes switched between the two commentary teams, only to get Brundle's insights, but today it was Crofty & Ant all the way. They make a great team and describe the race superbly. No more Legard (or sadly Brundle) for me during the race.

    Apart from the last two laps I don't recall them being that annoying. Star of the show is Mike Gascoyne on the pit wall, basically acting as a third commentator, chatting about Hamilton moving through the field. That was one thing ITV got right, basically stalking a team for the weekend and chatting to an engineer during the race. More please!

    Couple of gems in the qualifying today...

    Eddie Jordan claiming credit for Kovalainen getting into Q2 - he taught Mike Gascoyne everything he knows apparently

    And from Martin: "Petrov looks like he's wrestling an octopus in there." I wonder how long he'd been working on that one.

    Star of the show today was EJ's shirt. He certainly was sweaty, and I loved Jake's little dig once he'd got changed and they'd moved into Lotus hospitality: "it's nice and cool in here for you"

    EJ certainly was struggling wasn't he?! Good to see DC talking a bit about the DTM - hopefully it will give the DTM a bit more coverage in the UK.

    Anyone complaining about Legard annoying them... hit the red button right now and listen to a man who should in no way be allowed near a microphone for any reason summarise Q1, Q2 and the first half of Q3.

    No idea who it is, but his delivery is incredibly patronising...
