How does Croft keep his job, which Sky TV executive has he got the Polaroid’s on, when Bottas completely screws it up in the pit lane, Croft says , “supreme car control” the bloke is a complete gibbering idiot.

For the first two laps Croft only shouted about the first four cars, didn’t even mention George Russell

what is "sky race control" ? I thought it was the FIA and the stewards that controlled the race

So when he talks then.

His latest wheeze is pushing for Bottas to stay at Mercheydees and Russell to be stuck at Williams, berk.
This is the bloke who was so poisonous no team wanted him

I really don’t get all this vitriol towards Croft.

He’s a bit shouty and excitable but that’s his role.
A bit, have you had your hearing tested recently?

Crumbs, I think anyone who hasn't needs to give the indycar coverage a looksee, as an overall package it's worse than crofty.
But they don’t get penalties for racing.

Seriously, they do seem to assume viewers have never seen it before

Is it the AWS graphics that told us Bottas would overtake in 2 laps with medium difficulty.

If ever there was someone you wanted to punch in the face it would be the executive that came up with the AWS graphics.
Maybe they should say Amazon Web Services so there is no doubt as to where this rubbish is coming from

He was very gently asking questions but Horner was in a bad mood, so he just let him say his piece.
The problem there was that Horner was talking gibberish, so TK let him ramble

Ted’s an experienced enough journalist, to know not to interrupt someone making an idiot of themself on live TV!

Agree with others that a refresh of the presenting team is a good idea. I’d keep Ted and Rachel, but switch the rest of them.

The only worry is that they hire someone young and female, purely because they’re young and female, and who know even less than Pinkham about F1 but like the muscles on the drivers.
Hmmm, I think you forgot two other attributes that would give any applicant an advantage.

Eight minutes into FP2 and you can tell KC is getting properly fed up with Croft spewing rubbish
