One other thing, I love the BBC coverage. There is none better. However, they borderline sold McLaren out by broadcasting some critical driver transmissions. Openly broadcasting a strategic pit stop for Button, when they vocally declared they were aiming for an undercut is terrible.
And doing it a 2nd and 3rd time both for Lewis with his fuel issues was even worse. After the first broadcast about Lewis' fuel situation they should have stopped. RBR told Webber to be cautious for a fake. Then the BBC was nice enough to chime in and say, "Hey boys, this wasn't a fake. He really does have fuel issues" by transmitting the second message to Lewis that his fuel was critical. I know that Silverstone is closer to Milton Keynes than Woking but c'mon. You can't compromise a teams strategy like that. Those broadcasts didn't really add anything to my enjoyment or understanding of the race anyways.
