Alonso: I'll send you a text fomdi review When the F1 circus was away touring the world, there was sometimes no saving the show from tedium: the tarmac sat cooking on the desert and you couldn’t see a tree. But lately, thank heaven, we have been back in Europe, and whether at last Sunday’s GP at Monza, or at the previous GP at Spa, the Beeb’s presentation team have proved that they are fully in command of their three microphones. Their ability to snatch a quick interview or to introduce a short video sequence is crucial to their task, because otherwise the audience at home would have nothing to watch for a whole hour while the race got ready to start.
