i will miss johnny! i don’t feel like we saw him much last year, but he always seemed to have good rapport with the drivers (the lando/carlos milk video and the kart racing with the rookies being two examples) - he always looked like he was having the best time!Sad to see Johnny leaving but hallelujah no more Paul Di Resta! Today is a good day!

Long-time pundits Johnny Herbert and Paul di Resta leave Sky Sports F1
Johnny Herbert and Paul di Resta will not be part of Sky Sports' F1 coverage after the broadcaster chose to part ways with the duo.www.planetf1.com
I’ll miss Johnny for sure. I feel like he spoke his mind rather than following the sky party line and he was one of few who spoke out about Abu Dhabi being such an unfair farce.i will miss johnny! i don’t feel like we saw him much last year, but he always seemed to have good rapport with the drivers (the lando/carlos milk video and the kart racing with the rookies being two examples) - he always looked like he was having the best time!
he did get to be the person who told max he was world champion last season (however awkward it was!) so i guess that’s a nice note to leave on!
Yep agree I like Johnny, a bit daft but you need a laugh sometimes.I’ll miss Johnny for sure. I feel like he spoke his mind rather than following the sky party line and he was one of few who spoke out about Abu Dhabi being such an unfair farce.
Will not miss PDR
Does this mean the permanent return of barbie Nico from his lair?!

Sky seem to be doing this getting rid of the older pundits or commentators. Which is wrong. Maybe Johnny was fed up of travelling but if it isn't his decision then Sky yet again have failed. They did this with cricket and some on football all for the younger generation. But those older ones have the experience and knowledge. Plus can talk about the older drivers dome might not know.Yeah I liked Johnny too. Its a shame and a bit strange because everyone seemed to love him.
he definitely seemed to have taken a step back last season, which is a shame. i guess it’s a huge time commitment with the travelling and such so maybe it was just getting too much.Yeah I liked Johnny too. Its a shame and a bit strange because everyone seemed to love him.
Yes Ted is the best bit!he definitely seemed to have taken a step back last season, which is a shame. i guess it’s a huge time commitment with the travelling and such so maybe it was just getting too much.
if sky lose ted though then they lose me as a viewer![]()
Thats so true regarding cricket and with the passing of Shane Warne the commentary is so dull.Sky seem to be doing this getting rid of the older pundits or commentators. Which is wrong. Maybe Johnny was fed up of travelling but if it isn't his decision then Sky yet again have failed. They did this with cricket and some on football all for the younger generation. But those older ones have the experience and knowledge. Plus can talk about the older drivers dome might not know.
They tried to get rid of him. But the petition put an end to that. He’s awesome. I hope he talks about movie storylines again this season as it might mean no interviews from one particular garage!if sky lose ted though then they lose me as a viewer![]()
Mark Webber is great! I love the channel 4 pundits and coverage too. I wish they had the live rights still. Such a shame it went to sky. I used to love it on the BBC and C4.omg release nico from his lair!!!
i’m always in two minds about nico as a pundit in general. i enjoy the general air of chaos around him and that he doesn’t shy away from difficult questions, but he also seems to make some of the drivers uncomfortable and a few of them seem to actually dislike him (lewis obviously but george and lando have also been very frosty with him in the past). it always makes his interviews awkward
my favourite recent ex driver turned pundit is mark webber tbh. i would love sky to poach him. he’s always honest and has great observations. i enjoy the channel 4 coverage more overall though, just wish it was live!!!
the bbc coverage back in the day with jake humphrey and eddie jordan was the absolute best. i miss it and think of it whenever i hear “the chain”Mark Webber is great! I love the channel 4 pundits and coverage too. I wish they had the live rights still. Such a shame it went to sky. I used to love it on the BBC and C4.
@F1Grid good shout on Chandhok. He’s so far up Red Bull’s arse I’m sure he’s a paid employee.
I hope Jennie Gow is doing okay
Eddie Jordan was such a tit stirrer, knew a lot, and was good, but did annoy me at times.the bbc coverage back in the day with jake humphrey and eddie jordan was the absolute best.
of the current coverage i absolutely agree that channel 4 is the best. i like steve a lot (and he’sobviously
) - he never tries to take over and has a genuine enthusiasm, and the pundits are all great. sky just takes itself so seriously sometimes.
