Agreed - sailing round the world is no more a sport than swimming the channel

agree with lightning101, surely a sport is a competition and sailing around the world albeit a great achievement is not a sporting event just some incredibly brave/stupid idea that someone had the ***** (well not in this case) to do

Calzaghe wont get it as he features on ITV, same as Khan, thats why Zara is in the list as the beeb cover horsey events (and rugby)

Had Mansell had a competative car (ie put him in the Mclaren) Senna and Prost may have not won so many titles between them During his years at Ferrari the package they had at the time was not the best although he did produce a memorable drive starting from 12th in Hungary

Senna was actually quoted as saying that Mansell could take a turbo car by the scruff of the neck like nobody else. No debate over who was the better all round driver obviously, but for Senna to say that the most brutal F1 cars ever could be chucked about by Mansell better than anybody else goes against your point above

Jaytc2003,

However you compare him to others, he won 31 F1 victories through his own gutsy driving and you can't take that away from him.

That Golfer bloke will just get vote because his wife died. Sad that his wife died, but that doesn't mean he deserves the award.

I think the BBC would rather Zara or the Golfer win. Higher profile names.
When your right, your right.

I think that Philips bird who won it thought that the whole thing was "amazing" with "amazing people" that were "amazing".

Did she win something? or was it just that she was the best of a crap bunch? Why do I care I only saw the last 5 mins

Best of a bad bunch. Let's face it, British sporting performances this year have been crap by and large. I couldn't have told you what Zara Phillips had done for all the tea in China, as per 95% of the population.
