ITV just paid £165million for Champions League footie......I think their decision to drop F1 was probably so they could afford this. I think their coverage has been good, but NO ads will be much better.  |

I would say that BBC simply see it worth their money now and offered a lot more than ITV ever could.

It's OUR money...... and Bernie Eccleston will have got compensation from ITV, who pulled the plug on the 5 year deal early. I reckon the beeb got a bargain.They were shouting from the rooftops all day yesterday!!

That's an interesting theory you have there, not one I've read in the news but you often hear inside info.

Watching the qualifying highlights, it's a shame that the two McLarens have been demoted to 8th and 9th  Bet Allan's getting up at 7am tomorrow? Mad man  |

I'm going to try.  Tried to get up for the qualifying by setting my alarm but I slept through it.  |

Here is the 'blocking' incident in qualifying. Coulthard crashes in free practice. |

Where was the blocking? The last bit of the clip? |

Managed to get up.  Not as eventful as last week and disappointing for Lewis as a bad first stop cost him a chance on the podium. |

As long as Alonso did sh*t then I'm happy.

Malaysia usually produces a good race, but it's one of the widest tracks on the calendar so lots of margin for error. Can't wait for Spa, I'm hoping the weather is the usual torrential rain as well. |
