Don't be daft, I'm watching the MCC game and flicking over occasionally.

Doing the same, what a day of sports this is.

Break off at 1 to watch a spot of F1 qualifying. Will never need to leave my couch. These are days I will tell my grandchildren about.

You'll probably have to get off the couch to sire grand children though....... or maybe not

Yes what a great weekend. F1 for me takes priority though.

Incidentally, ITV are showing the entire stage, except the finish. Numpties.

Thanks for the info. Am stuck with ITV for the next week as away from home. Three ad breaks in the first half hour

The crowds are unbelievable! The Pope and The Queen doing Abba's greatest hits wouldn't be this popular

 

[melkemugg]

Well, this is exciting!

 

[Eclipse]

Three ad breaks in the first half hour

I would hope that they are simply trying to get ad breaks out of the way during the neutral zone and the actual racing will be less interrupted by them.

The crowds really are awesome!

Adjmal is going to bloody ruin this. Has no one told him we're trying to watch old batsmen, not current spinners. Bowl some pies and make sure Brian and Sachin have 300 to chase.

 

[LaFlorecita]

Dear god can we start racing already

 

[melkemugg]

Enough with all the parade ****. Start racing!

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Andy Schleck being treated as a past winner lol

Royality in cycling is worse than doping.

 

[willbick]

kate the only person in yorkshire with a lower fat % than the riders

 

[Rollthedice]

The great Andy Schleck! The great Anglo-French friendship! Peace brothers!

 

[Sciocco]

Royalties took too long, NEUTRALIZE THE STAGE!

 

[Rollthedice]

Riders in the back are taking a nap.

 

[Arnout]

Noone cares about this Britain. Just saying.

That was nice for him.

 

[Ricco']

Would be massive if the Tour and Olympic Champion Sir Bradley Wiggins appeared from nowhere together with the royal family to cut the line and have a little chat with the cyclists.
