River I agree with you about Webber (except I don't think he's a dick, lol) - I am a huge fan of Webber's and I want to see him do well (and I have no doubt he will) but this season has seen him go downhill a bit. When he was a Jaguar he was impressing everybody, his driving was very mature, he kept out of trouble and he wrung the very best out of the car. This year he has been a bit hot headed and been involved in a few too many incidents (many of which have been his fault). I think he is getting a bit frustrated with Williams' slide down the grid this season and has been trying to overcompensate a little. The last thing he needs is to tick Sir Frank off to the point where he is dumped by the team, he'd be lucky to get a drive with anyone after that. Regularly bringing the car home in a points paying position and beating Heidfeld will impress the right people and secure his future more than overambitious overtaking attempts that end in tears. I agree that James Allen is a tool, his attempts at oversensationalising everything just drive me crazy. (I usually mute the TV at the start, just so I don't have to listen to him yell "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" every damn time the lights go off.) I think he is trying too hard to fill Murray Walker's position and match his enthusiasm, but he just come off sounding stupid. James makes so many mistakes I sometimes wonder if he has been following F1 at all. True, Murray made mistakes but at least it was entertaining and he always graciously corrected himself. Oh well, it's still entertaining these days when Brundle corrects him and makes him look stupid. I do enjoy Brundle, his experience makes him very knowledgeable and he manages to counter James' dumb comments with his professionalism. However, the pro-British bias they both posess is a bit annoying, but then what do you expect from two poms commentating primarily for the British public. Murray Walker was just the same with Mansell and Hill. Matt [Report message to a moderator]
