I tried to post a negative comment on the video but it wasn't approved. Wonder why...

I'm so happy I won't have to listen to this twangy pop rubbish everytime I watch an F1 race!

Ha ha. Probably. Or the other extreme is its the end result of 8months of focus groups and meetings and surveys.

BBC used the same song for their 2010 outtro:

A much better job by the BBC!!

Ultimately, it's only a 50 second intro, so it isn't that important, but that said Fleetwood Mac's "The Chain" is synonymous with F1, one of my first memories of F1 is that bass solo intro!

[killem2]

What a crappy song.

[synsei]

Oh dear...

This intro is not that bad, but it's too american... Btw, BBC was always better, in every way!

It's also very 'Sky'. A big crescendo sort of tone. But that's not F1 unfortunately. They should listen to the public and re-make the intro.

Just making an assumption here but I suppose Sky didn't use "the chain" because it will be used by the BBC in 2012!

I would say you are correct.

So when the BBC drops F1 altogether in a couple of years, Sky can have "the chain"
