Jake Humphrey Leaving BBC F1



Just read that Jake Humphrey will leave the BBC F1 coverage at the end of this year to cover Premier League Football with BT Vision.

Link has more info.

This saddens me as I was holding reserved hope that he would jump to Sky for full time F1 and to save their terrible broadcasts.

What a shame, I love watching Jake on a Sunday Morning. He's a great presenter and got on really well with all of the F1 stars. Obviously hes just after the money. What a shame, its just gonna be eddie and dc now. F1 is slowly going down the pan coverage wise.

A shame indeed but even without JH, the EJ and DC show is still better than Herbert & Co on Sky

In all fairness, Football is Humphrey's first love. So it isn't just about the money I don't think, though I'm sure it helps a lot. I'm sure Sky would have paid up for him if they could have, he is without a doubt the top man for the F1 anchor role right now.
