I watched it a little today and found the posturing of the crowd in the background, pretending not to realise the camera presence and those knowingly actively, and gormlessly, staring at the camera hilarious.
And in a similar vein, when people see themselves on a screen, they wave at the screen, not at the camera - why?????Kim

The Red Bull Racing presents Formula1 on C4 - sorry i mean, Whisper productions...
I actually thought hat they'd dialled the pro RB content back a bit - maybe I wasn't paying attention!!
Tbh given that I can't (won't) afford to pay for Sky so I can only watch highlights, I tend to skip through anything that doesn't have cars moving on the track, but for instance I don't recall them immediately calling out Russell for the Perez incident, which in my view last year they'd have been pretty vocal about.
Maybe just me.

It actually stood out to me when he said that as I would've expected him to be neutral at best.

It was quite the opposite I thought. DC even remarking that he was surprised Perez would even attempt to go round the outside at turn 4 given how that's worked out for him before. And that GR gave him as much space as he could.

DC had obviously had his notes from MarkoIt actually stood out to me when he said that as I would've expected him to be neutral at best.
Mind you, I'd put good money on it that if it had been the other Red Bull driver Dr Evil would be singing a very different tune...

Billy monger has developed into a very good pundit. Prefer him to DC for his insight.
Yet Naomi Schiff is given endless criticism because she’s never raced in F1. Surely Billy should get the same criticism as he also never raced F1. Or F2 for that matter. Of course he doesn’t though, and I think we all know why.MissChief said:
