Johnny Herbert and Paul Di Resta dumped by Sky F1

[BoroFur]

Not fussed about Di Resta but disappointed that Johnny is leaving as he and Ted are probably the only two not afraid to tell it how it is.

Di Resta is boring. Plus his bias towards certain teams and drivers is unbearable.

Shame to see Herbert go, he's entertaining in his own way.

Enjoyed Herbert too outspoken for Sky and the F1 bosses?

That’s a pretty dull line up of ex drivers

I like jenson and danica but they only do the odd races based on location and scheduling so not really part of the overall full line up.

Nico never really say anything interesting.

It all looks very “safe”

I'd like to see Danica given a full time role. She's experienced enough in various forms of motorsports and gives the American audience that connection. She's also not afraid to say what she thinks if you've ever listened to her radio Comms during NASCAR races for example.

Jenson is a calm and knowledgeable pundit to have to. At least he's not a yes man line Damon Hill.

I agree but I think She has too many obligations in the us.

Exactly and he’s one of many.

I quite liked both to be fair, but realise they need to keep things fresh - prefer either of them to Rosberg.
