Living here in Canada I have the option of watching both the Speed TV coverage and the James Allen and Martin Brundle coverage. I watch the Speed coverage only because they have people who know what is going on. There is nothing wrong with Hobbs and Machette. Both have been in the sport and are very knowledgeable. Hobbs being a Brit is going to be bias but there is nothing wrong with that. There hasn't been a good Brit driving since Mike Hawthorn and Steve knows the technical side of the racing. Varsha on the other hand is like other North American racing annoucers.....They talk to you like they're covering a NASCAR race. F1 fans are smarter than that.

I am so releived this year when the SPEED crew announced the four Grand Prix televised on FOX. Sheehen is a retard. Varsha and Hobbs are a great team back and forth with Varsha's great knack for cadence and not sitting on his thumbs, and Hobbs providing endless historical facts. Machett is great with the technical stuff. The only one I think who has his head way up Louis-Town is Windsor.
On the flipside we had to endure Sheehen and FOX's coverage of the US MotoGP race, and they butchered it big time.:bones:

I'm still glad they are there though, because I can keep watching the race when TSN goes to a break.You can't make a person love another person. You can only pray for it.
Stupid rules => stupid consequences :s

If you really listen carefully to David 'obbs he slips some zingers in, in a very normal tone of voice. Don't forget also that he has spent a good part of his life in Canada and the US. At one time he lived in Bowmanville, about 10 miles from Mosport.
