They obviously felt he was lucky to be escaping having to describe races like Hungary and make them sound intersting.

I think that had more to do with what was happening - or not happening - on the track.

Isn't Martin allowed a normal family holiday in his ITV contract? Just a thought...

Well he can take those during weeks when a Gp isn't on.
Thanks to Martins absence, we had to listen to Mark Blundell pile onto the misery that James Allen creates.

Mark's a great bloke and a mate. Perhaps not best suited to the lead role, granted. James is an ex-colleague, and he grates on me big-time...

You guys are all nuts, James Allen is a good commentator, probably not as good as James Hunt or The Man Muzza, but still a good'en. I love the whole 'GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' at the start of the race.

Martin was on a family holiday.
And no, James Allen is not a "good commentator"!
