But then have you ever had Carlton Kirby forced on you while watching Le Mans, it literally made me turn the sound down so utterly awful was it, yet these people maintain careers for decades so some of us must be well away from the mark I suppose!!
Martin Haven is just as bad and also has a lifetime supply of Bacofoil for tin foil hattery. Always goes down a crazy rabbit hole only to be corrected by the driver commentator

Jolyon Palmer And Alex Brundle.

Karun Chandhok And Alex ? Would be my choice.

How woke the world and Sky is would they put a woman in there? I can’t think of one.

Karin Chandhok is excellent, absolute pleasure to listen too and very knowledgeable.

How about that fountain of F1 knowledge, Naomi Schiff, whose pleonasms are almost as redundant as she is? That would be super awesome biggrin

Bernie Collins and Ant Davidson would be great choices as well.

Yep, Karun, Bernie and Ant are (hopefully) the future for coverage, and I thought Harry Benjamin did a good job on the races he covered earlier in the season.

I cannot believe that, Button say Lewis is looking after his front tyres, Croft instantly says Has Hamilton used up his tyres

And Russell is going for a move on the inside (SHOUTING)… repeat… repeat… repeat.

Anyone who has watched F1 longer than a month can quite clearly see that an overtake isn’t going to happen.

It is so frustrating watching when you know what racing looks like.

Do you think Lando is trying to give Piastri a tow behind verstappen? As the cars trundle at quarter speed down the straight on a cooldown. :facepalm:

He is a weak link in Sky’s F1 team, only ranking ahead of Ms. Schiff. He talks far too much, often trips over himself, and adds very little. He makes my head hurt.

No one is as bad as Carlton Kirby, it’s just not possible

However I agree about Haven, bloke doesn’t know when to take a breath, and argues with Any Davidson regularly despite not having a clue.

Hindhaugh dies like you to know he has a 911, and loves mentioning when he raced somewhere

His argument with Jim was a classic.

Agreed. I lost count of his mistakes and his incessant babbling was mind numbing.

That's an understatement, I came here to start on about his mistakes, and very soon realised I would be here all afternoon, he was dire, endless mistakes, totally inaccurate statements and screaming about non events
