Enjoying a lap with Jenson and Lewis 6:54pm on 12 Jun 2009 "650bhp of danger, in the wrong hands."

Quote of the blog. :D

Have fun at Silverstone. you lucky, lucky man.

Great work on blog and on screen.
Stepping back into Monaco history 8:03pm on 20 May 2009 Great blog update mate, great to see the BBC getting inventive with its content.

Looking forward to this weekend and what you and the rest of the production staff can present to us.

Oh, and don't be shy to show the glamour of the weekend, Monaco is all about the girls. Make sure they are included.

Good luck!
Savouring the qualifying sandwich 4:18pm on 18 Apr 2009 Mike was great!

He should be kept on the team for as long as possible.

Yet again, great coverage, keep it up.
It's all up in the air 7:16pm on 14 Apr 2009 Looking forward to this weekend, should be a corker.

Now, I'm not usually the type to rattle out negative comments on the web about people I don't really know. But the appointment of Mike Gascoyne has me worried quite frankly. All I ever saw of him whilst he was at Force India was him having sour grapes and generally having the attitude of a child.
Now, having never met him I'm sure I'll be proven wrong. Seeing as he is now out of F1, I'll give him a fair chance.

Good luck to all you BBC folks this weekend. Have fun.

Oh, and just out of curiosity, what ideas did you pass on during your meeting? And what was talked about in terms of improvement and what has been seen as negative?
Filling for Britain at storm time 09:30am on 06 Apr 2009 Great coverage, again.

I was a bit gutted to find that there was no post-race forum. As I think there was still plenty to talk about (remember, the people who press the red button for the forum are going to be the monumental F1 bores such as myself!), I was interested to see what DC made of the later starts and the clear affect it was having, and the racing this weekend was awesome, seeing them on a permanent circuit you can really see how the cars are more aggressive and 'racey'. Fantastic.

As for your meeting about content, I've heard (though I've never seen it) that Ted used to have a really good webcam blog on the ITV website, maybe that could make a return.
Other than that, can't really think of much else. You'll get alot of people on here asking for alsorts of features, but just so you know, the coverage is pretty damn brilliant as it is.

Again, great work Jake, enjoyed watching.

P.S. More of Lee McKenzie. What a babe! Haha.
Final reflections on a memorable weekend 5:14pm on 05 Apr 2009 What's with not having the post-race forum? I hope that wasn't a one-off, that was a great idea.
Final reflections on a memorable weekend 7:10pm on 30 Mar 2009 Great work Jake, and everyone else.

Such great coverage. And the site has really come alive, lots of breaking news and interesting videos. Seems the Beeb are setting the agenda for everyone, great stuff.

And I also loved that F1 forum on the red button, great to see DC vs. Eddie and Martin about Vettel apologising. I wish it was two hours instead of just one. (You may not agree with that!)

Good luck with the next race, I can't wait!
Sneak preview of our new F1 TV title sequence 9:14pm on 27 Mar 2009 Nicely done.

I hope the final edition will have soon actual footage in it though.

Very good job on those effects though, liking that.
Webber takes time out for wildfire visit 2:19pm on 26 Mar 2009 Awful, awful time for those that found themselves involved in those fires. Truly wish them all the best, for now, and for the future.

Good to see people in F1 taking time out to spend time with the victims. No doubt Webber felt especially moved by the events.

RIP to those who didn't make it.
En route to Oz 12:15pm on 23 Mar 2009 Arh, Jake, you lucky lad!

What I wouldn't give to be in your position this weekend. Whilst I sit at home pulling my hair out worrying about my BBC1 signal (reception has been randomly dropping out). Hope you have a blast, and make the most of it!

Great blog.
