The Season so Far

Ted, Georgie, Johnny and Allan return for another special August edition of The F1 Show and look back in depth at the season so far.

Georgie and Ted return for another special summer break edition of The F1 Show

Last week it was the turn of some of Formula 1's top writers to have their say on the season so far, this week it's the turn of Sky Sports F1 team to pick out the bones on all the thrills and spills from the first 11 races in another special edition of The F1 Show this Friday evening. After David Croft kept the famous black sofa warm for the holidaying Georgie Thompson and Ted Kravitz last week, The F1 Show's resident dynamic duo are back in situ for this week's edition which we've aptly entitled 'The Season So Far' and just as it says on the tin - or more accurately your Sky Guide - we'll be looking back in depth at exactly that as we edge into the second half of the summer break. Georgie and Ted will be aided in that quest by two rather well qualified experts in the form of former Grand Prix drivers Johnny Herbert and Allan McNish with the quartet to look both back and forward at a season that has hardly run to convention or expectation since the red lights went off back in Melbourne in March. A campaign to date, which, lest we forget, produced a record-breaking seven different winners in the first seven races, a championship leader who for the most part has completely defied his car's competitiveness and the odds, the astonishing rise of some of the grid's perennial midfield runners and a title battle that remains intriguingly poised as we prepare for the three-month sprint to the November finale in Brazil. So in a nutshell, the team will be covering all the major talking points witnessed from Melbourne to the Hungaroring little under three weeks ago, all of which will of course only serve to further whet the appetite for when the racing action finally resumes at Spa at the end of the month. There's really not long to go now, honest...
