Why are the BBC continuing with Jonathon Legard when he is obviously the only bad part of the new F1 coverage?

May be...

Marginally, just, better than Eddie Jordan. Two big mistakes for this year I'm afraid!!

He sounds like a tired Peter Purvees commentating on a Royal garden party or Rememberance Sunday

No enthusiasm, seemingly no F1 knowledge, and that annoyingly constant same level drone.

He constantly talks over the other coverage team and is quite frankly boring

I don't want to miss Martin Brundle's commentary but may be forced to switch to the alternative

I was no big James Allen fan, but come on BBC , Legard is sooooo wrong for this job

What do other f1 fans think of Legard?

I didn't think he was too bad, he corrected Brundle on the Toyota's tyre changes today, he doesn't shout "oh my god Hamilton turned the corner" every 2 minutes like James Allen did, yes his voice is a bit lumbering for a fast sport but he could be a lot worse IMO.

I dont think he's too bad, hes no Murray Walker but hes a vast improvement on James Allen, who's Hamilton bias was as offensive as was his lack of ability to read a race. Got to add that DC is doing a great job as a pundit.

Here here!
Stating the bloody obvious is his game isn't it. And missing the point. When Button came out of the pits and had leap frogged both Toyotas, he hadn't even realised it, so didn't even say anything about it until a couple of laps later. I mean, that was one of the decisive moments of the race!
Sack him, I'd say.

I don't like him either. He's voice is annoying and he talks drivel like when he made the comparison about someone getting the new world record for holding their breath under water and the race conditions or some cr@p! WTF?????

Bring back James Allen! All is forgiven!!sony projector mount
