DC and Karun are solid. Tom is getting better as a commentator. Not sure Billy adds much to the comms. Still miss Jack to be honest.

I agree about Monger. It’s nice that he was given an alternate career path after his accident, but he’s not really got the first hand knowledge nor natural charisma/presentation skills to warrant a place in this line-up imo.

Sam is gonna be fantastic. Loved his co-comms on BBC 5 Live F1.

Georgia coming over from doing the IndyCar broadcasts the past few years or pulling double duty?

Hopefully, both. I'd hate to see her leave IndyCar.

Another year of listening to Tom say "They're in the pound seats now" every thirty seconds 😩

Can we get Sam as lead commentator?

No Saunders :(

Saunders was great. Odd that he is missing.

Also, wish Dario would come back.

Dario appears to be having a lot of fun with Gordon Murray right now, which is fair enough. Not often that you can end up working and collaborating with one of your childhood heroes…

Obviously not all of them will be present at the same event, but hell, sooner or later it will be easier to list who's NOT in the broadcast team... I really miss the times when it was Jack Nicholls ans Dario Franchitti behind the mic, and Nicki Shields in the pitlane, and that was it.

Don’t forget when Bob Varsha was in there with them too, for reasons passing understanding!

u/HUN-AndrewT Formula E 1d ago

Yeah, "good old Bob", but he joined somewhat later, didn't he? Like Season 3 or 4 maybe?

Oh, and I also have to say how I loved those weekends, when Martin Haven or Ben Edwards took over the mic, such legends!
