Say wot yer like about the Beeb's coverage (and I think it would be nearly as good as ITV if only someone would push E.J. under a fast moving Force India), but where's the bleedin' adverts?

It would appear that we now are expected to watch an entire interminable GP without breaks for tea or a piss.

Personally I found that those three blastingly loud power chords "Daan, daan, daaaaaaan..." leading into and out of the ad breaks were the only thing that woke me up during most of the more grim races of the past decade; looks like I'll be sleeping for the whole distance this year.

Bloody BBC - If they were to make the licence fee compulsory I might even be moved to complain...

Yep a very good effort overall by the BBC for their first F1 broadcast in 12 years or so, EJ is a bit annoying at times but his arguments with DC are worth watching, who's taking bets on a punch up before Monaco?
