Don't forget Interlagos, my personal favourite alongside Spa. The main problem with these new Tilke tracks is the lack of undulation. I mean Silverstone is still a pretty decent circuit considering it's built on an airfield, but tracks like Spa, Interlagos, Donington with a lot of ups and downs with tons of camber to upset the cars is what we need. Not these new autodromes that look like they've been laid on a snooker table.
Agreed about Legard, he is a pain in the arse, nowhere near as bad as James Allen though, who has given us such classics as "The G forces around that corner are the equivilant of having a labrador strapped to your helmet". Murray was a plonker at times but you knew that he absolutely loved the sport and that's what let him get away with it:

Murray and Hunt were a particularly great pairing:

I'd love to see Crofty & Davidson (The Radio 5 commentators) alongside Brundle, they are a great pairing.
A final word about Jordan, I think he's fantastic for the BBC coverage, Jake is still a bit of a novice in the sport however he is doing a great job. DC still has his head stuck up the arse of Red Bull. Eddie isn't afraid to ask the questions we all want to but everyone else is afraid to, he isn't afraid to grab (usually litterly) anyone and everyone who he wants to talk to. And the bickering between them is great to watch.
