I've been quite tolerant so far of him but one of the itv commentators who isn't Martin Brundle wound me up something stupid during todays race... grrrrrrrrrrrr.
When massa 'clearly' infront of alonso his cockup was a prime example of this.

They have a history of pulling this kind of sh*t, I remember when utd won the CL in 1999 they cut to ad breaks half way through schmiechel lifting the cup, didn't show any of the celebrations!

Whats the point of them bidding for sport only to treat it like it's something stuck to their shoe?

Allen is the biggest prick in TV broadcasting in the world today.

His comment about Kilogrammes Newtons downforce takes the biscuit. Does he not even have GCSE physics? Does he not read the F1 press? He said something to sound important that just made him sound like a prick.

And why wasn't he supporting an amazing result from BMW?

Can't believe what they've done. After months of incessant lewismania, they don't even show the press conference!! Words fail me.

ETA By the way congrats to Lewis and to Nick, and thank God Kubica isn't seriously hurt (according to reports), what a horrific accident.

Surprised no-one has mentioned his 'yellow helmet in a Mclaren' Senna comparison. I mean, Hamilton is good, but drawing comparisons to Senna is getting a bit ahead of yourself, no?

Briskly drawn up standard response from ITV I suspect rolleyes

ITV Reply said:
Thank you for your email. We are delighted that Lewis Hamilton won his first Grand Prix today, in what was a hugely exciting race. Due to the numerous incidents within the race, which included the deployment of the safety car four times, the race finished later than anticipated. We were able to overrun slightly and stay with the coverage from Canada to see the podium presentation, but ITV1 is a mainstream multi-genre channel and we have to balance the interests of all of our viewers, millions of whom will be tuning in to see Coronation Street at 8.00pm.

The reaction to Lewis Hamilton's fantastic win, including the press conference and analysis of the race, will be shown within our highlights programme, tonight at 11.50pm on ITV1.

Kind regards
