On the other hand, there needs to be more interactive services. During Wimbledon, viewers were able to view any match they wanted. Why can't this be done with Formula 1? Maybe this is something the BBC is actively looking at? However, F1 news seems very sparse from camp BBC. So I guess we'll have to wait until 2009 to see what they have in store for us... or will the race start moments after the program does! On a similar note, I went to the Silverstone testing last weekend and was shocked that I could not enter the infield. I've been to many other events at Silverstone and this was a first for me... When Force India said the "Public" could view their pit garage, what they ment was VIP's could. Totally different!!
