‘The new deal means that fans will get unprecedented TV coverage of Formula 1 race’…………what sort of crap is that. BBC does that all free of charge in its country whether on TV or web & the same applied to Al Jazeera & Bahrain. It’s being sinical & rather degrading to viewers……..as if they are doing us a favor. And what’s with the commentry!! ……can’t they get any better commentators who have some technical insight into what’s happening. When the producer replays a shot in the race…….60-70% of the time they are clueless as to what is happening & all we hear is (from that El nimri guy!!) here we can see so & so from the so & so team!! Way below par this coverage needless to say it is in several instances patronizing to the viewers whom I bet in 80% of cases know what is happening without their input

I concur with Mitri & Dujsee in this utterly poor coverage of the races. Non one is missing on this commentry with all its shenaniganes…….stating the obvious, repeating what has already been said, even their guy who claims he is running in the paddock gathering info takes ages to do so (that is if he ever gets any news) & even so he simply gets it wrong (Hungarian GP…….claims that Hamilton retired not due to a gear box failure but it did) & the list never stops. This Feras ElNirmiry really thinks that he has done a job well done……..yes in Lala land! Seriously its time to get their act together……….I have not heard any complement even as a good gesture on such commentry & as of next race I shall try to take Dujsee’s advice……hopefully this will work.

Hey people…….there is no way this abu dhabi commentator bunch is gonna improve whatsoever. I have waited on them for 4 months & they seem to go from bad to worse!! And what’s with the guy who gets sent to the paddock each race………waste of time & money…..pretends he is giving us updates with his funny accent ‘Red Boool’!! Ladies for other channels do a better job than him!! Take my advice…….do what I do though it may be complicated but at least you will enjoy it. I record the race & watch the replay while listening to the BBC iplayer (on radio 5) which has excellent commentary from David Croft, Anthony Davidson & Holly Samos.

PLEASE can you offer optional English commentary when available via the audio options? I appreciate and respect that Arabic is the home language in the Middle East, it would however be a great advantage to both Abudadhbi SP and visitors like myself to be able to enjoy and share in the F1 experience…! Many thnaks

please who ever is responsible on monitoring the commentators to make sure that Ayman And Firas not talk about what they are not 100% sure off, and when schumacher makes a fast lap they don’t have to say that because his car is low on fuel. guys this is formula 1, that means strategy, don’t throw words, he has his fans pals. Keep that in mind. talk everthing that pleases the audience…..

Could your studio commentators not talk while the post qualifying and post race interviews are on? It is the only time we can hear the drivers comments in english.This habit started during the last two races and is irritating to say the least.We just ask for a few minutes of silence.
