I have Sky, ironically got it for Bernievision back in '03 ?, and so where I watch the races or highlights depends solely on where EJ isn't. He's an embarrassment I will be able to avoid.

EJ used to drive me nuts but he's a valuable edition to the BBC team IMO. Sure he makes some stupid comments but he also asks awkward questions to team principles where other presenter wouldn't venture. Whenever teams have favoured drivers quite blatantly, EJ is there pushing the point much to the embarrassment to those around him and its great viewing. I hope he's there in 2012.

Well I hope he stays at the BBC. Then at least I can enjoy all 20 races EJ free.

You'd have to be mad to watch all 20 on Sky, 10 I can almost understand but I couldn't sit through all 20!

But again, how do you actually know that yet? You are basing that purely on assumption, not actual fact!

No, because i already know the answer to that
But it's like me saying that sleeping with Eve Lawrence would be the best sex i could ever have, but until i tried it, how could i actually know for certain

I did too. They were offering something better and more than was on offer free. It was worth it.
That is a little different to now. ITV had F1 then and it was blessed relief. The F1digital+ coverage they offered was top draw. Now we have BBC, but not live all the time.
Still, rather than set up a tent, but return to my warm home very night, I'm going to roll with it. Let's see...

I have no idea who Eve Lawrence is, but I'll take you word for that. If I get to watch Sky for free on a stream whilst you guys pay £40p/m I'll reconsider my opinions on it.

At the moment I'm in the first camp, although I'm thinking that when I can watch a race live on the BBC, that's what I shall do, so that's a 50/50 split.
Otherwise I don't think there's much to say until we know definitely who's doing what and for whom.

I belive she's a porn star, otherwise a live stream sounds like an interim solution.

I learnt that to my peril this morning when I googled her name whilst at work and had a page load of adult links come up. I had to phone the IT department to clear things up, so thanks for that Mr V. Another reason to keep my presence here rather brief.
