Oh that's not good, you need someone that knows what they're talking about, and looks a little older! Do they still have David Coulthard? Xx

That's good! At least he knows what he's talking about!

But that's not good, and maybe it's nerves? He's got pretty big shoes to fill! Xx

I just found him a bit monotonous, do like Crofty on Sky though, him and Martin Brundle make a good team. Shame it’s not on terrestrial much anymore, always really liked DC!

I like the sky commentary. Most are ex-F1 drivers themselves so they know what they’re talking about.

Blundell & button for qualifying today, was good

Need to watch C4 now to see how bad he is haha Hate that Sky just ripped the rights away and have totally monopolised coverage but unfortunately seems to be the way of the world now! Ah well, as long as Lewis wins number 8

It was the same with the football but been that way since 1992 so unfortunately it’ll be here to stay now. No sport is safe

I remember having to switch over to SKY when BBC sold out to ITV, then having to switch over to some German channel when the adverts came on

Alex Jacques is the new lead comms. Not heard how good/bad he is as not a big F1 fan, more bikes.

Commentators, especially motorsport seem divisive, have seen many for and against the various lead or co-comms on F1, MotoGP and superbikes over the years. Never going to please everyone.

Surprised that its Alex Jacques on C4 as he does a lot on sky with GP2 and 3 as well as the virtual stuff. May have been that his contract was with F1 not Sky.

Didn't rate him. Also peeved that they got another bloke when there are some great women in the sport who we need to see more of.

The downside of some one like Alex Jacques is no actually racing experience. Ben Edwards was an ex driver so knows how to drive.

I think Billy Monger is too inexperienced as well to be commentating on F1.

I am sure there are good ex F1 drivers who could do a better job.

I can't understand why C4 has that bellend Steve Jones as the main presenter.

Billie has improved a little this year. I'd take him over the new guy. DC and Webber do fine in the commentry box too xx

So who is going to call it? Who’s going to win the race today???

I was impressed by AlphaTauri on the softs in qualifying. Shame that on the mediums their pace wasn’t there.

I think Max V has a great chance from P1 as long as the car has race pace. I hope we have a true competition this year.
