The chain plays on the BBC advert for the new F1 season. So at least something bodes well!

The BBC have already confirmed that The Chain will be the F1 programme's theme.

I still haven't seen this add.
I guess I just don't watch enough TV. Still, hopefully it'll be up on youtube or something.

Any other song would have basically been a form of sacrilege.

Rising number one of Formula 1, Juan - Juan, one wonders should Juan only win one Formula 1 one year, would Juan have won that one in round one, Juan??

It is less than impressive. And it's on the BBC's F1 site.

Thanks. I see what Denthúl was saying, though; it's pretty naff.

Yeah, pretty naff indeed. It may have been the BBC sport colours, but they still looked wrong.

I actually heard an add for BBC F1 on the radio today. It had the chain playing throughout the add, along with some radio messages like "he's ruining our race, lets get past him" Those sort of radio messages. It was pretty damn cool. Much better than the video in fact.
