    It is, but Sky want the casual fans and they'll be the ones only interested in British drivers. It'll never be any different.

    Find an NBCSN feed then... I think you'd approve of our coverage.

    At the end of the day, I think you are right.

    Not sure about that actually, looking into it. It would appear it was illegal to sell alcohol to under 24's, but not for them to actually drink it.

    Hamilton goes out early in the race... still upsets people.

    Bloody glad he didn't win.

    He isn't upsetting me at all, it is Sky.

    Sky, did you have to ask about John? Classy from Button as always though, doubt I'd have had that composure.

    If I remember correctly new laws in Turkey increased the age limit to drink alcohol to curb the youth drink problem and that Vettel only sprayed the champagne on the podium and never drank any.

    Seriously though... you'd think the focus would be the young drivers that shone and the fact that Ferrari looked nowhere. Hamilton is a none subject today.

    Same I would be destroyed if it was me and it's slightly disrespectful by Sky to bring it up this early on with the media hounding him about how his father would feel for him after today.

    Button looked really happy when Will Buxton interviewed him. They didn't talk about his dad at all. He looked very fresh and positive after the race.

    Still nothing about the big winners Ricciardo and Magnussen.

    Newey a few months back was saying the new noses are unsafe as they could cause a car going over another, Davidson showed Kamui basically go under Massa's car and lift him up towards his head.

    Yeah. He has a point (literally). I don't think there is any way to make the nose truly safe though. Wherever it's positioned it's a risk.

    Great win for Rosberg, the car is quick in the race and qualifying. Unlucky for Lewis but there's a long way to go. Really pleased for Ricciardo and Magnussen. The race was good but not great, however I enjoyed it! The Ferraris are rumored to be 18kg overweight too.
