At the risk of upsetting a few and veering slightly off-topic, James Allen is a complete idiot. Thank God he only gets limited airtime on F1.

There is only one F1 commentator. Murray Walker. He calls it as though his trousers are on fire. The fact that he no longer commands the microphone is the biggest loss to F1 since Senna at Imola in 1994 (wow, was it that long ago?).

BRING BACK MURRAY!

(and Top Gear)

Is anyone here awaiting the return of Oz on SBS as well? It's amazing how many of its cast has turned up in all those other shows on the other stations.

I agree with 95% of what you are saying, except that I prefer James Allen to Bill Woods and Neil Crompton.

In relation to Murray, Amen.

He was the God of commentators and his infectuous "Go Go Go" always raised my excitement even in the small hours. Nobody will ever replace Murray in my opinion and I miss him more than Senna. All I can say is thank heavens I taped a number of races, and can still hear his commentary when I feel the need.

If bernie had any guts, he'd camp a truck full of money out the front of Murray walkers house until he agreed to come back.
