On a positive note, that's great for us old luddites who only have basic television

I See all motorsport is really starting to get on with it now. Watch a bit of the BTCC today and F1 was on as well, Moto GP has done a few rounds and WSB starts up I think next week its just BSB that seems to be waiting for summer before there first race. From what I can tell there seems to be a lot more availability to watch it all this year which is great news

Dunno about anyone else, but I thought the ITV4 coverage was pretty darned good. No adverts in races, clear picture, reasonable commentary, wish it was a permanent thing .....

Gotta agree with Mr M on this.
On balance I much preferred it to BT Sports' interminable talking heads and, except for the occasional piece from Eugene Laverty, the lack of any technical information whatsoever. I certainly didn't miss Gavin Emmet and his continual droning on with never ending statistics, names, dates, characters etc. etc. - ad bleedin' nauseum; this when he should be race commentating.
So is this a one-off by ITV4 then? I hope not. If they're showing the whole series I'll be cancelling my BT Sports subscription for certain.

It looks like this is the first of just two planned for this year - as above the second is the Brit GP.

The sight of Suzi Perry is worth the BT Sport subscription alone.....
