That reedy voiced twat has to go, along with his never ending stream of banalities:furious:, how the f*ck did he get that job?, between him and that smug arsehole Kravitz and the cock that is Rosenthal-(BARDC??), they are ruining the coverage of F1.
The FIA need to seriously consider who they licence the UK coverage to, if they want to maintain their biggest viewer base. The whole thing reeks of tackiness with their whooshy graphics and stupid f*ckin "itv f1" overalls.

I wouldn't mind so much if he admitted his mistakes every now and again, but he stated that Monteiro had retired imediately after that young Indian chappie, when the TV picture clearly showed the driver from the sub-continent. all we got was what a disatrous race it was for Jordan with both cars out.

Didn't even correct his mistake later on when the Jordan was being lapped.

I wouldn't have minded, but even the f1.com commentary feed corrected itself.

I long for the day when there are the muffled sounds of a sock filled with snooker balls hitting cranium interrupting the broadcast. Then again, they'd probably be on an ad break at the time.

That would be much like the sound of a half-coconut clopping on a table top. You know - that hollow sound.

You're obviously watching the highlights show - I heard that one and cringed too.

Surely the "highlights" would be those moments when Allen keeps his ferkin gob shut?

Top cringeworthy moment for me was not this weekend, but the Nurburgring, when Raikkonen was trying to limp home with his badly flatspotted tyre. When the suspension finally let go, Allen couldn't help himself repeatedly yelling words to the effect of "I told you he should have stopped!!" in an incredibly smug and self-satisfied manner. Ugh.

Had I been in the commentary box at the time, I would have strangled Allen there and then with his microphone cord.

Remember kids - Stop The Cock!

I didn't much like the end of the race either where he just started shouting about how montoya had won etc.

also, Jim Rosenthal... "Isn't it great to be at home for the British Grand Prix?"

Where else would it be? France?

Still. It was a decent GP by modern standards. Still no bloody overtaking though - they *have* to do something about that next year.

To be fair, there were a few overtakes, Kimi on the Mono-browed Spaniard (although it wasn't really for position in the big scheme of things), Villeneuve on Lantern Jaw and Lantern Jaw on Webber (?) .

Better than some races.

Montoya's taking the lead by going around the outside of Alonso through Copse weren't too shabby neither.

What about Rosenthal wetting himself when some F**king football walks past - the tit should not be front the F1 - we know he only care about footy. Twat.

I watched the race from the trackside and it was boring - despite numerous overtaking opportunities at Club Alonso and Schumacher chose not to take the risks. As a result, once again we saw Trulli stuff the race up for everyone else....but by the same token, his pedestrian pace also allowed Raikkonen to secure 3rd place (and what a mighty qualifiying lap his was, for the second week running)

Oh and I think Lenny Kravitz is a good pitlane man, not afraid to do some digging and ask some controversial questions.

Schumacher displayed major arrogance though by refusing to give the Radio Silverstone man a couple of words before the start of the race - what an arrogant tt
