"The future of the European Grand Prix in Valencia is in doubt after the city's government indicated that it wants to renegotiate its race fee."
Hallelujah, lets hope they ask too much and it goes. It is boring to watch and even more boring to drive on F1 2011 It's a crap place to spectate at too

CEO of oil company OGX who are sponsors of Bruno Senna has tweeted this morning that Bruno *will* be driving for Williams next season. No doubt more to follow, as even Bruno says he doesn't know! Found this snippet on the BBC F1 homepage. A good move for Bruno if it's true.

BBC's presenting line-up announced But I found the predicted viewing stats at the end of this article (linked from above) more interesting reading! 4-6m per race for the BBC vs 0.5-1m per race for Sky.The likely impact (as discussed) on interview times, etc will be interesting to see. I certainly have no plans to go out and get Sky for a few F1 races this year

Apparently i have the the required Virgin package to get the F1 channel (although it wont be in HD without paying extra). So i think i will be watching the Sky only ones on sky and the joint ones i'll go with the BBC (unless i find the Sky offering is brilliant)

From what i've read you will get the F1 channel (non-HD) if you have the Sky Sports package (1,2,3,4 not just 1,2)
You'll only get HD if you're paying the £5 or whatever it is for HD Sports.

Shame for Kubica, but I think it's definitely not too late and he should easily be able to get back to fitness for the start of next season if he can get a drive.

Off to drive for the team that stood in court, accused of his uncles death!! Are they also trying to heal old wounds?? However I did think Senna's driving was improving quite smoothly duing the last season.

If the Tyres do what Pirelli say they'll do then it should be good racing, Ferrari really struggled on the hard Tyres last season.
