Ben Edwars says it too, but not nearly as annoyingly.
The only one that ever pissed me off was Martin Brundle's "Look, but never stare" throughout 2011.
And brundles 'it's what I call an arrive and drive corner'The only one that ever pissed me off was Martin Brundle's "Look, but never stare" throughout 2011.
Though not as bad as crofts 'is he going to get past' long after the point everyone else knows it isn't going to happen.
Mind you, he is nowhere near as annoying as Legard was.

Probably also thinks 40 ºC is twice as hot as 20 ºC.
Well, when you use a relative scale rather than an absolute scale, it has some legitimacy.But 'hot' is not really a measure and using a relative scale doesn't really help.

Probably still make a better f1 commentator than crofty though
When Vettel got back into the pits and threw out a silver object from the cockpit in frustration, Crofty stated that he had thrown out a tape measure!
Surely it was the seatbelt centre that he had just undone?
Worse was the fact that Brundle seemed to agree with the tape measure statement!

The shot only showed the tape measure (yes - a Stanley-type polished metal tape measure with a yellow lable on it) clattering down the nose and landing on the floor. Whether it was in the cockpit, or one of the pit crew put it on the car & Vettel knocked it off in either disgust or by accident, wasn't clear.Surely it was the seatbelt centre that he had just undone?

It is a well know fact that Seb carries a tape measure in the car to measure how far off pole he ends up. His frustration is that Stanley don't make one long enough!iandc said:
