Tomorrow 8pm: The F1 Show - 2012 Preview. Martin Brundle and Damon Hill join Simon Lazenby (who?) and the entire Sky Sports F1 team to preview the 2012 season.
10pm F1 Legends - Emmerson Fittipaldi
10:30 F1 Legends - Sir Jackie Stewart
I guess that's probably it for the week, but sounds good so far.

I have been watching the Sky F1 channel this week and there is a fantastic preview VT showing the building of the 2012 Williams car in the factory from the bare chassis to the full car. Takes about 30 mins to watch and it is properly fascinating to see all the bits go on in time slip.

Really hope Williams have a good season this year - their operation is very slick.

Ooo I didn't know there was a Caterham one, didn't see that one yet!
Yeh me too, Williams deserve a good season, at least with some of the expertise they have brought on and further investment in their commercial technologies (KERS) they have the funding to do well.

Still a darn sight cheaper than an actual race weekend tickets .....its Mr Ecclestone that I think is the thieving git here....
anyway, who said anything enjoyable is cheap in this life. I'm just looking forward to another great season and putting my feet up in front of the TV on a Sunday afternoon. although wife is a bit miffed there is now a full time channel to watch
she says she will be rationing my viewing privilages... 
Anyone going to any races in person this year.? we've bit the bullet (and the ticket price) and are off to Monaco. Havn't decided if it will be a jaunt down in the S yet. might do it by train and take in some of France on the way down.
also considering Silverstone again.

Oh and Grandstand seats in Singapore are £100 per person cheaper than Silverstone. 2 x 3day passes come in at £250.
Having an unbelievably generous friend with an apartment in Singapore also helps
