Crofty was Freelance when working for USP/5Live. Not sure whether he'll remain freelance or whether he'll take on a Sky Contract.
If he is on a Sky Contract, it may have been a case of honouring previous agreements as they didn't interfere with the F1 stuff.

I certainly wouldn't. Leggard should be given a lifetime gagging order. I maybe being a bit optimistic but I can't help but think that Allen will have matured in the years since he was at ITV. He won't be unaware of the criticism that's been leveled at him and as long as he's curbed his more annoying habits, he'll be O.K, IMO.
As for Damon Hill, as long as Sky has forgotten about Nigel Mansell, I'm happy enough.

Sorry matt, I had to re-read that twice. (My initial scan came over as " Would you really want a legover with James Allen!"
Obviously, the answer to 'both' questions is a very definite NO!

Given Peugeot's withdrawl from the WEC and Le Mans, Ant Davidson could now be available for the whole season on SkySPortsF1.

In a M News piece this week he said he had learnt a lot since leaving ITV and also offered the view that the coverage then was Lewis overkill and he was more balanced in his approach nowadays.
