Agreed. What about Brundle compared to DC?

I think Brundle seems to know the plot better, and Coulthard tends to get a bit lost sometimes

Also - who was the BBC Irish bloke in the pits? Did they say an ex team-principal? He seemed to know what was what

MB and DC both possess a veritable welter of F1 knowledge between them, for obvious reasons.

I prefer Brundle - but only just though. I love his low-key cynicism. Plus, no-one does grid walks quite like him. I would 'cry' if his grid walks were 'axed'

Gary Anderson had a 13-year career as an F1 technical director, starting with Jordan in 1991 before moving to the Stewart and Jaguar teams, plus a second spell with Jordan.

He started his career in the 1970s, graduating to become Brabham's chief mechanic, before moving on to McLaren and then designing cars in other areas of motorsport before joining Jordan for their debut F1 season in 1991.

Since leaving motorsport engineering, he has gained experience in broadcasting, working for Ireland's RTE television station, as well as F1 journalism.

Ahh, thanks. I remember him now.

He designed the 1998 Jordan, and then fell out with Eddie and left the team after Eddie brought in Mike Gascoyne to 'troubleshoot' the car mid-season, because it was rubbish.

Its a bit early to make full comparisons yet anyway. Best to wait until the Sky bunch have settled down completely in the job. Its bound to take a while-the BBC bunch were just the same when they started.

I enjoyed the Sky coverage,especially all the extra bits anyway.

I agree Les (I should have put a disclaimer in my earlier post, to that effect).
