So EJ reckons McLaren spending money on simulation is "madness" whereas his team where so much more succesful without it...

WTF!

When will the beeb dump EJ- he's such an idiot!!

Id rather they got rid of that Jonathan ledgard

sounds perfectly reasonable to me. whats good about a load of blokes sitting locked away in a room doing 'simulations' of a race all week.

in jordans day, how could mclaren have predicted that coulthard was going to put a wheel onto a metal drain and take out half the grid? a whole 2 weeks work wasted in a few seconds. its a complete waste of time me.

true eddie jordan weren't the most successful team ever, but i really don't see the sense in a gang of lads trying to predict a gust of wind, or a driver braking slightly later than usual or another teams air gun not working on a pit stop. complete waste of time.

this is racing done on a track, not in a room with computers. time is much better spent building the best car you can

as for leggard, there's a waste of time right there... although no where near as bad as simon (i forget his surname) who did a short while when itv first started the tv. though what i've noticed about leggard, he's a radio commentator, and he still commentates for the radio, even though we can see whats going on

EJ does have an entertainment value though!!
Ledgard just talks for the sake of it!! Last week he moaned about a Ferrari starting up in the background while the interviewed Schuey - personally I'd rather just listen to the cars and watch the racing and leave their mics turned off until they have something technical to say.

my opinion of course
