I think in Ben Edwards and John Watty we have two of the best and informed commentators but I have yet to hear Andy speak publicly.

Sounds like a very good crew to me, Edwards and Watson should be more than capable. I too have not heard Andy Priaulx talk a lot but when I have seen him interviewed in WTCC races he has always come across as pretty confident and self assured, I think he will be able to do a good job and no doubt he will not be the only person in the studio, he will of course have guests in the studio with him so the emphasis wont be purley on him.

Yep - that's right. Cars arent really his thing though so it will be interesting if he can find the enthusiasm for it. Sophie Aal is down as a reporter too - she's not the one from Speedway is she?

Sounds a very good team. Edwards and Watson were miles ahead of ITV during their Digital F1 time.

But he'll only be in the pit lane for Brands. After that he'll be joining Andy Priaulx in the studio. |

Just like the IRL coverage, they'll keep at least their presenting team in a UK studio

Ben is actually the International english feed so Sky just tap into that... they will only be sending people to the BH race other races will be done "from the tube" with the team in the UK..
A1 GP special on Globecast 20:00 wednesday - I'm on an open top bus in London - John Surtees live nad lots of other stuff... Sky Ch 907...and it's free! Might even be able to announce someother news then too... JH |

I think he meant "will Hindy on a bus be live on Sky Sports?"
To which I think I can safely say the answer is No. |

So are there going to be selected highlights on Terrestrial TV or what?
Channel 4 or 5 perhaps? |

There will be no terrestrial coverage of either A1GP, or of Hindy's future use of public transport.
The only way to see A1GP is on Sky Sports. The only way to see Hindy is... you're better off sticking to radio.
