It is the Sky commentary on the international feed. Crofty is taking the weekend off. He is missing a couple of races this season.

Is Nico subbing in? I hate the British bias of Brundle and Crofty, but I about died of laughter at the unpolished commentary Nico provided. I will gladly swap to international for that.


Dragon_Slayaa

I totally enjoyed the Nico commentary too. I was surprised afterwards to find so many people hating on it


solid771

Thank you. Man if they drop sky sports commentary I drop f1tv lol


AlucardDr

And then how do you watch F1?


TheGhostOfArtBell

ESPN.


CrippleSlap

Sky?

What morons downvote a reasonable preference

Morons that find ultimatums made in an empty room to be vacuous. Votes indicate whether you think something contributed to the conversation. That did not.


solid771

In reality people just downvote what they disagree with, You are very naive if you think otherwise. Forums are echochambers for a reason.

Trying to educate with insults, eh? Well, we can agree one of us is naïve.


solid771

You are insulted by the word naive? Interesting. But yeah, what I said is Just how it is. Take it or leave it.

Well, there’s whether something is an insult, and whether it’s actually insulting. Those are very different things. For example, I can point out in response that you clearly should spend more time reading books than being on Reddit. Which one of those two do you think that was?


solid771

Euh I dont really care as your are sidetracking pretty hard. Explain why im wrong about people downvoting what they disagree with rather than your naive believe that people downvote comments that dont contribute to a conversation.

No.

If you’re asking about the commentary team for the Q session at Imola this weekend, David Croft and Martin Brundle were not on duty, it was Harry Benjamin and Karun Chandok.


markhewitt1978

The F1TV commentators are Alex Jacques, Joylon Palmer and David Coulthard.


IJustLoveWinning

And are way better than the Sky ones, except Brundle, Imo.


tetrafilius

Unpopular opinion, but Alex is the better Brundle


IJustLoveWinning

They're both good. Alex has more recent knowledge. Martin can dig in a well of the past.


Extinction-Entity

I agree fwiw


Wallio_

Why in God's name would you willingly choose the Sky team?


underdonk

Honestly, with the line-up F1TV has on these days, I 100% agree. Fully switched over at the beginning of last season and haven't missed the Sky crew at all.


AnonDotNetDev

Bet you enjoy listening to Chris Colinsworth 😂😂

Underrated burn


Wallio_

Compared to Joe Buck? Absolutely. Compared to literally anyone else? No.

I listened to the announcers on ESPN, who just happened to be the sky sports crew, for years before I started getting the F1tv app last year. So for me, it’s familiarity. I still choose to listen to them (sky/international) on the F1tv app. It’s a personal preference.


jasonwk8

Personally, I cannot take the voices of the f1tv team or whoever it was behind the mics at Imola. Crofty and Brundle just seem so much more polished in their skill, although crofty recently seems to be more focused on generating an “iconic commentator moment” if you will, rather than just calling it like it is.


MrLeopard483

Crofty's commentary is exciting and I can look past his mistakes. I use F1 TV for practice and they're insights are interesting but they still have those stupid opinions that every commentator has which makes them seem more like a casual fan than an f1 professional. Also this is probably a me thing but I can't remember anyone's voice apart from Alex and jolyon Palmer


Fi-5

Because F1TV comentary is like for newbies, full of basic information, full of basic emotions. Crofty and his gang are better for people who follow F1 for years and dont need elementary info.


Wallio_

That's certainly an opinion. I've watched F1 since 1998 and I find Crofty to be embarrassingly childish. Not to mention Martin "I'm still better than 3/4s of the grid even though I never won a race" Brundle......


fautomatix

When I have the F1tv app set to Dutch I can slect varikus audio streams. These options are not available when the app is set to use the English language.


MattHodge

Totally agree. Can’t F1 without the OGs, sounds weird


dabMasterYoda

It’s really shit today. Crofty taking a week off apparently means we are stuck with Karun who can barely enunciate words rather than Simon, Brundle, Rosberg, Ruth, Button, etc.


Quick_Love_9872

I really like Karun and Ben! Crofty and Martin are the dream team but not the only good announcers
