Croft has to go
Discussion
Has he said anything about pitlane messages today? https://twitter.com/f1elvis/status/130435465073740...
PS. It's not just us, Marc Priestley thinks he's crap too

These two in F3 and F2 commentary are excellent too. What broadcast were they doing for F1? Just an alternative?Neil Crompton/Mark Skaife, best commentary pairing in motorsport by a long way.

Nah - if you want real class go to a VSCC meeting, none of that undercut and over cut bks . The usual fare is whether a Frazer Nash TT Replica raced in Bunty Trumpington's hands at Ards in '36 but on one surreal occasion I heard the commentator spend 10miutes on the best ways to cook a partridge....

I think they do the official F1 channel Alex Jaques was funny in the F3 race, apologised fir getting a bit excited and said he will go and listen to whale music.
I think DiResta was having a pop at Croft at the beginning of the FP3 session
You really are an idiot, none of the teams have selectable engine modes, it’s not just the Mercs

Crofty points out nearly every qually that Lewis is slower in q1. Yes crofty he's sacrificed q1 for tyre life for years now. Maybe one day you'll get it you stupid fat lump.
And "OH BOTTAS HAS PARKED IN THE WRONG PLACE!!!??!?OMG!!"
Yes he obviously aborted his lap you stupid fat lump.
Is he even a fan of the sport? Does he just "turn off" and do completely different things when not on air? He just has no grasp of what's going on, no intuition.

I get the impression he's never even done any £15 karting, he has an amazing lack of understanding of all racing, completely clueless. Brundle must find it so frustrating.I find Crofty 49/51, like nearly perfect weight distribution, but in this case it`s not a great analogy... constant verbal muck-ups that make me roll my eyes, and yeah, his gushing horse-race commentary at the start is a bit hard to listen to but in the overall scheme of things it`s bearable. My wife leaves the room when things get exciting, as Croft ramps it up to a point that annoys the hell out of her, or she`ll ask from another room if the guy is having a seizure.
When we`re watching the start and first lap I need to wind down the volume so she can handle him, and I can still hear a bit of info! He obviously provides lots of valid facts and figures and generally makes a decent fist of it, and when he blurts a factual blunder, Brundle (Blunder, Brundle... hmmm...) will often jump in and correct it. The balance of Brundle`s knowlegable influence and coming out with gems like "Ambition well ahead of adhesion" gives it all a Laurel and Hardy kinda stability, & means I won`t be in the vigilante brigand that calling for Crofty`s head.
Well, not yet.
