    Bernie has enhanced Sky’s F1 coverage exponentially just on this first race weekend alone. I’ve learnt more this weekend listening to Bernie‘a insights than for a long long time.

      @@sonsofblackwoodmc4570 She's inexperienced and not used to speaking on air in front of millions, so obviously and inevitably she's going to trip over words and repeat phrases. Live speaking like that isn't natural and everyone sucks at first. Look at how wooden Naomi was initially and now she's much better and more fluid as she's gotten more comfortable. Her valuable insight is what you should be listening to anyway, not how she phrases things. Also, she was never sacked at all from what I could find, she willingly left and opened up her own consultancy firm and has now been hired by Sky.
