BBC F1 2009 Team Confirmed

Unless you’ve been living in a hole, not living in the UK or just don’t like F1 ;-) you’ll be well aware that ITV had the rights grabbed (albeit in a mutual backslapping ceremony ;-) ) away from them and passed to the BBC.

There has been much talk about the new team that the BBC would put in place; many fearing that we would lose the excellent commentary splashed with some dry wit of Martin Brundle as the transition takes place. However, I am pleased to report this is not the case! He, along with Ted Kravitz have jumped ship in the ocean of broadcasting and will be resuming their positions on the BBC. Our old pal Murray also makes a return appearance; this time answering questions online rather than in the commentary box.

With no adverts and what appears to be a great team in place it should be a good season for F1 coverage 8-) .
