Generally speaking I thought the coverage was ok with a few exceptions. Don’t see the point of Georgie Thompson, pleasant enough but totally superfluous, I thought her “big iPad” thing with Ant a bit cringeworthy. Ant deserves much better than that, it felt very akward and very staged. Sadly whilst a big fan of Crofty with his Radio 5 coverage I felt he must have thought he was still on the radio, at one point he was telling us a car was taking a left corner….we could see that, it’s television not radio! One reason why DC and Martin Brundle were so popular was that less was more. Crofty needs to throttle back 40%, be a lot less excitable and not try to dominate the airwaves especially when the majority of us want to hear frqom Martin. I know he was used to painting a picture for us on Radio 5 ( he was great at it) but that was radio this is tv. It was what annoyed many viewers when Jonathan L. came on board and to a slightly lessor extent James Allen. As a few have mentioned it’s early days so hopefully things will settle down and I hope Crofty will become a valuable member of the team. If not then I’m sure Rupert has DC’s home number.
