Everybody has been out to get James Allen recently but where do people stand on Ted Kravitz?
I beleive he's OK but when Hamilton is out he talks morbidly as though someone has just died.

BBC keep him or not?

I agree. To me, he's just another guy who will suck up to and bum up anything British, no matter how poor or in the wrong they are. As I said on the other thread, I, and others, I think, who watch Formula One in Britain want to see good coverage, not another Hamilton acolyte.

I was going to mention about his sombre tone after Hamilton crashed out. Sounded as if someone had died. Not to mention that it also sounded utterly ridiculous.

I'm not that keen on him to be honest. He seems to get a hell of a lot of simple things wrong.

I think he has some kind of sexual relashionship with Hamilton, either that or he is scared of his or he is completly in love with him.

I don't mind Ted too much, I hate to say it but James Allen was a gd pit reporter back in the day, and im not joking there.

I think Brundle and Blundell are a package, so maybe see both of em.
Id love Tony Jardine back, even Rostenthal to present as he's outta contract. See in the old ITV days the coverage was pretty gd, only the adverts ruined it tbh.

Ted probs stay and do the BTCC etc on ITv4 no doubt, louise god knows?

Murray and James Hunt, now that was a package, the quality of which will never be equalled. In fact if we exhume JH and put whatever's left of him on JA's chair it would do a better job.

I used to like Ted well enough, but this year he's become completely hopeless.

True, but there's a big difference between speaking for a minute or two every half an hour and being, well, the anchorman of the channel's coverage for a couple of hours.
