Sky Sports F1 have announced there line up, and to be honest I'm mostly impressed with the crew they got.
Martin Brundle and David Croft commentators
Ant Davidson as Practise commentator
Ted Kravitz (Which is the one I'm happy about most probably) with Natalie Pinkham as pit reporters
And then the bad selection Georgie Thompson.
Seriously, Georgie Thompson? Oh the irony, Sky F1 has a convicted drunk driver on their team.
Problem with the line up, the best thing about BBC's coverage, Jake, Eddie and David isn't there.

Let's hope Pirelli change things a little for next season. 2011 started with Pirelli really making things interesting with dramatic differences in the grip and degradation levels of the different compounds but towards the latter half of the season things slowly became a Bridgestone affair again with tyres lasting silly amounts of time and removing the tactical elements seen at the start.
I've got no idea what difference the helium would make in the wheel guns.
In season testing will make some interesting changes. ~The last couple of years have seen some teams being very competitive early on only to drop off significantly as the season progresses (Renault being a prime example last year). A lot of this, I think, is down to some teams being unable to maximise the results gained from wind tunnel testing, hopefully in season testing will help to even things out.
The banning of exotic engine maps and strict control of exhaust placements will show us who were really making the most out of blown systems.
EDIT: Crofty in the commentary box with Brundle?! Epic Win!
Can't wait to see who fills the last seats but it's good to see old Pedro back again, always liked that guy

Disappointed that BBC didn't manage to hang on to at least some of the commentators, makes me worried for who they will actually have (if Leggard is back I might just buy Sky).
Updated OP with Sky/BBC live broadcasts.

Won't be watching this, certainly can't afford sky as a student. A shame, 2011 was really good year for F1, viewer figures were up, and then it gets licensed to Sky and quite a few people can't watch as a result. .

Thanks for starting the thread Alastor, good postage.
2012 technical changes are shaping up to be quite decent, I'm looking forward to it. The change in nose height coming over the next few seasons is going to be a big aero challenge, even though no-one's really touched on it yet.
As for Sky vs BBC I'd rather have it on the Beeb, but since our household already has a Sky subscription the stats won't change because of me (if we didn't have it already I wouldn't get one, I hasten to add).

The only reason i have Sky is that it's the only luxury we can afford really and it's kind of unfair that I have internet use and the wife just has the TV, when it's without Sky but through a Sky box that's very few channels(you can't even get Dave for example). Basically just with HD is £10.25 a month and that would include the F1 channel when it launches. It only gets really expensive when you start adding movies, sports or multi-room really.

If in defending his position a driver leaves the racing line, he will not be allowed to retake it (could be a big change)
Won't this destroy most of the battles for position we see though i.e taking a slower line into one corner in order to get an advantage at the next one.

I have literally lost all interest in F1 seeing as I cant, for the first time in my life, watch all the GP's.
I actually feel betrayed.

Is anyone thinking of going to Milton Keynes on Saturday?
For me it depends on how much stress I feel like having on the morning.

Secret Clearence already
But I think that my BA in Computer Forensics & Network Security plus my certs and now also my active clearance is worth more than $15 per hr. My buddy just got a job in VA welding on ships for 60K and they said he got that much just because his clearance is still active and the company didn't have to pay for him to get a new one which I heard for each level of clearance costs a company like 60K.
So that's my dilemma, what do you guys think.

Units of Study
CHNS2650 - Chinese In-Country Study A
Semester 2, 2011 | Credit Points: 6
Coordinator: Wei Wang
Enrolment in an approved semester-based program of study (normally intermediate or advanced Modern Standard Chinese language) at a tertiary institution in China or Taiwan. Students can earn 6 credit points for every 52 hours of Chinese-language class in China or Taiwan, to a maximum of 24 credit points in any one semester. Credit may also be awarded at the rate of 6 credit points per 4 full weeks of intensive study after completion of an approved summer in-country Chinese-language program.
As prescribed by the host institution. On successful completion of this unit of study, students will receive a "Satisfied Requirements" result at the University of Sydney.
CHNS1102 or CHNS1202 (or a sequel within the same stream); or any senior CHNS unit of study whose numeric code has 60 as the second and third digits. Native speakers of Chinese who can read Chinese fluently and seek special permission to undertake in-country study after first year must present a coherent academic rationale to the department.
Assumed Knowledge
At least a year of Modern Standard Chinese at tertiary level (or equivalent). The department recommends that students complete at least two semesters of Chinese prior to undertaking a full semester of in-country study.
A timetable is not available for this session.
Please refer to the list of Units of Study on the left-hand menu to view the units on offer for the relevant academic year.
