I'm more excited to see Kimi back in F1 than I was when Schumi returned. That always had a whiff of anticlimax about it, whereas I think Kimi could be genuinely competitive, given a half decent car.

Agreed, but he's still as dull as dishwater!  :grin:

I think if Schumacher was given a competitive car he, too, could be competitive.

Brilliant!

I expect that Team Lotus are very pleased to sign Kimi as a driver.

Yeah, I've already heard comments that the exhaust exits won't meet the 2012 regs...

The BBC will show the following races Live

15 April: China
13 May: Spain
27 May: Monaco
24 June: Europe
8 July: Britain
2 September: Belgium
23 September: Singapore
14 October: Korea
4 November: Abu Dhabi
25 November: Brazil

There will be full live coverage of both qualifying and race on BBC One, BBC One HD and the BBC Sport website, plus a one-hour evening highlights programme on BBC Three and BBC HD. For these races, all three practice sessions will be shown live on the red button and the website. The F1 Forum will continue on the red button for about an hour of comment and analysis after the programme.

Of the other 10, there will be extended highlights programmes on BBC One, of either 90-minute or two-hour duration depending on race location. Races in the Far Eastern time zone will have highlights broadcast on BBC One at 1400, with those in the European time zone getting 90 minutes at 1730.
