F1 on SPEED!!!

How can you tell it's spring? Well, not by looking outside here at The Pond, that's for sure: we've gotten 4 inches of snow today. Cactus League baseball and Fifty degrees F. yesterday, to boot.

Ah, but inside The Pond... that's where you can tell it's spring. Why? Because this entry is the FIRST installment of F1 on SPEED for the season, that's why!

We start off on Friday, March 10th from 5am to 6am with Live Coverage of Practice from Bahrain. Then, from 430pm to 5pm we get Mr Snootyvoice and Inside Grand Prix (sponsored by Allianz, the company that does something...), which I encourage HWWNBNUHCOTP to watch.

Surprisingly, that's it for Friday. No replays... which is also the case on Saturday, March 11th as well. From 5am to 630am we have Live Qualifications from Bahrain, but no replay.

Sunday, March 12th, though... First, we get 5am to 730am, the Bahrain Grand Prix LIVE. Mal will bring the bagels.

Then Mr Snootyvoice returns with the same episode of Inside Grand Prix (sponsored by Allianz: We Still Don't Know What We Do.) from 11am to 1130am.

Then you get the replay of the Bahrain Grand Prix from 1130am to 2pm, and the season is off and running!!!

All times are Central, as that's where The Pond is. Subtract two hours if you're on the west coast, add one hour if you're on the east coast, and if you're in Europe, add eleventy-sprocket hours. Particularly Belgium.

1 Over here in the UK, we have the shocking news (well probably not shocking to anyone that had paid enough attention, but it was to me) that the GP coverage will no longer be hosted by Jim pra"Gargoyle-features" Rosenthal, and instead by Mr Smooth Steve Ryder. The former host was pretty rubbish in my own opinion, and detracted from the whole show.

Instead we get someone who is a consumate sports presenter, who was on the BBC for what seemed like forever. So for once, change is good.

We don't seem to get the first practice any more, although ITV has added a couple of new channels since last year, so they may hide it on there somewhere. As for main qualifying and live race coverage, I just don't know. If it is a European race, you know. If it isn't, thrown it up in the air, and remember to check on Friday, is my normal motto.
