And Danica seems much better already than yesterday, maybe it was nerves?

Danica is absolutely awful. She has taken F1 punditry to new depths of low.

She doesn't answer questions. Quickly goes off tangent with verbal diarrhea. She's been good with the Indy 500 but F1 is clearly out of her depth. She was asked about Perez and then gives an answer more related to Bottas. She is so bad that even Simon is flabbergasted.

He had a big legal battle with Hamilton's dad a while back. I imagine he would like nothing more than to see Hamilton get beaten this year.

you would think that Sky would make him knock it on the head, he is making his bias is very obvious. it was his mouth that lost him his F1 drive, you would think that he would learn his lesson.

Don’t like listening to pdr he’s just so miserable and full of hatred for everyone.

Don’t like Croft because he’s getting louder and louder. Quiet down man!!

It's a fair comment. Good for the championship overall in that we might see a different winner.

PDR has ties to Merc (still does sim work?). If he's says anything that favours Lewis or Merc then he'll be accused of bias. Never gonna win - Channel 4 coverage is accused of bias with ex-RBR drivers as pundits.

I think you're mixing him up with (the much better) Anthony Davidson?

I don't think he did anything with Mercedes after DTM but is close to Zak and I believe McLaren reserve

I’ve seen his hertz gold plus account, his customer notes make a special mention that he will not accept Mercedeses as hire cars.

Yes his first link from the top of the stands was rather painful to listen to (volume right down if you do catch it)

That's what I was referring to. My ears are still ringing 24 hours later.

I’d have to say they need to sack off Damon as well. It’s painful listening to him in FP1.

I have to agree unfortunately. Very underrated driver, lovely guy, steeped in F1 history but dull as dishwater. Jenson is much better and Rosberg turned out to be better than the entire Sky team put together!

Jenson is making some howlers of mistakes. Cant we have someone who understands the rules on the team.
He is generally quite knowledgeable but seems rusty. The reason I thought Rosberg excelled was that he's clearly still very plugged in and talks to team members, his knowledge was bang up to date.

Not sure who else really fits that criteria. I'd quite like to hear Albon share some thoughts though he probably wouldn't be as open being under contract with RB and Williams.
