F1 Theme Tune

Does anybody know what the song it that they use as the theme tune for F1 on ITV? I'm sure I heard it on the radio or tv the other day and I'm curious to find out who it's by.

Thanks

    No, that's the old one that BBC used to use. Far better it was, too.

    I don't know what the new one is, sorry.

    It's a bit rubbish, the song and the whole theme of ITV's coverage...
    They are trying to americanize the whole thing like Sky has done ages ago...

    And what's with all the dark suits????

    :yes: I agree. Except for the ad breaks, ITV give better coverage than the BBC did. They also give F1 a higher profile than the BBC did.

    No one could replace Walker but that wasn't a BBC/ ITV thing... the guy got old and retired.

    oh... yeah the ad breaks are really annoying :/. I guess it's a means to an end for them as they don't get the tv license cash like the BBC, they cant really help not being able to do replays for stuff that's missed sometimes as its not directed by them..

    but yeah they definately give it a higher profile, I think they've gotten a few more ppl seeing how good f1 is :D

    If you have a look at the ITV F1 website, there are all of them in dark suits...
    And when they commentate on race weekends, esp steve and mark they wear dark suits...
    I just think it doesn't look F1!!

    ITV is definitely doing it better than BBC coz they are putting more money into it via sponsors, and the commentary is all right, however James does annoy me, it's his voice...
