  • T-SQUARE's truth is the best

  • BBC intro is the best.

  • Oh this brings back memories of being a kid.

  • The only one that gets anywhere near the chain really when it comes to f1 intro's

  • meh

  • It shows 2003 and 2005 but not 2004 why?

  • @tommo912 get this right, 2004 came in between 2003 and 2005...are you actually serious? do you ever see grave stones and think 'why does it say 1923-2002' ?

  • This is the best f1 intro

  • Best ever F1 opening

  • this intro is great bbc need it

  • Comment removed

  • Good intro, but missing something crucial that, thank the lord, the beeb brought back when their coverage started in '09.

    Of course, it could only be Fleetwood Mac's 'The Chain' =D

  • My first season. Seems it was one of the best of the modern era aswell.

  • @zebecat Agreed, 2003 was probably the best season of the last decade, 2000 and 2005 were great as well.

  • It's just not the same without The Chain.

  • nooo, the 2000 intro is way beeter

  • 2000-2000 itv F1 intro was the best by far then 2006-2008

  • this was one of the best intros! what is the name of this song?

  • It's a remix of "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

  • This was the best intro for F1 however i do like the current one. I am glad that F1 is back on the BBC though because there are no adverts but i do like the ITV intros better as they changed them every 3 years, whereas now its back on the BBC its going to be the same forever because if they replace "The Chain" lots of people will moan.

  • this and the chain are the best

  • My top 3 intros for f1:

    1)1997 (itv-jamiroquai)

    2)2003 (itv-this)

    3)2009 (bbc - the chain).

  • @jamiroquai01fan

    I was going to say you cannot be serious! but i look at your name and see why you choose that

    it isn't my view but horses for courses.

  • 2000 ITV intro 1st then this 1,BBC intro a pile of junk along with legard

  • @akmnh1

    you have short memory

    he is far better than James "I love sucking Hamilton's balls" Allen

    he was fucking awful.

  • best one EVER!

  • Ahh, this takes me back... It was the best intro by far that ITV came up with.

  • was the best intro ever to any f1 show!!!!!!

  • best intro

  • f1 on itv sponsored by toyota

  • Great this. Brought back some memories.

  • brilliant quality in HD!

  • Great theme this, best of the ITV themes. The BBC theme still is THE F1 tune though and makes the hair on my neck stand up every time.

  • this and the chain would be great- for US coverage of F1

  • This was so AWESOME. MUCH better theme than the current theme. And I agree with Kersh!!! Hair stood on my neck when this came on, ready for qualifying or the race!!

  • i hear this music on our American ads here in the US

  • This song is actually a cover of "You Ain't Seen Nothin Yet" by Bachman Turner Overdrive

  • tbh parts of it sound like top gear

  • good for puting this in high quality now put this in hd

  • ITVs best intro but the new bbc one is the best

  • This a famous case of:

    if it aint broke, dont fix it!

  • You're right, but it's still pretty good.

  • ive always liked the moby theme but this one is alot better and jus as good as the bbc theme

  • i agree they should have keept it and the cain i s crap

  • What is "the cain"? and why is it so crap, exactly?

  • ITV should have used the 2003-05 intro the whole time, this is epic.

  • this was a dam good intro.

  • The only good itv intro- this one.

    ITV are so stupid, they should've kept this tune

  • @YeefeiMr I disagree this is the ONLY good intro. I like the 2000-2002 theme, too.

  • ooohhh the memories

  • i actually like this music, sounds like 'aint seen nothin yet'! All the other ITV intros after this were cack. At least we have 'the chain' back again!

  • it is "aint seen nothin yet!" :)

  • this is the best intro for itv why did sir michael grade chairman of itv or itv f1 team not keep it or north one television not keep it

  • i agree, this was the best from itv.

  • THEY SHOULD HAVE KEEPed IT

  • Why the fuck didn't ITV keep this theme music for their latest intros? Idiots!

  • get this video in hd or high qaulity but hd is better

  • i liked the music on this one i liked when the cars went through eau rouge at 180 mph

    the entrancesa got worse then it became literally a hamilton porn movie [or in lesser words just a entrance full of hamilton]

  • It was Coulthard you idiot!

  • this is the best f1 intro ever recorded in my life

  • itv just got worse and worse. they used to have a good coverage team with jim rosenthal, tony jardine and that but in the end we had to put up with steve rider and james alan who i now more about f1 than

  • Reminds me when I used to watch F1 but i was too young to understand wtf was going on. I always routed for Raikonnen as the underdog taking on Schuie and Ferrari.

  • Best Into should be re made for BBC in 09

  • jamiroquai theme is better but this is 2nd. jamiroquai did it 1997 '98 and '99

  • Agreed, ITV's intro's got worse as time went on. The current one they used was by far the worse. This wasn't so bad. The one before was quite good and the JK one was the best.

    But all pale in comparison against the BBC intro's with The Chain! :D

  • LOL. You're too young to know anything about F1 then

  • The only people I've known who say that ITV is better are those who are too young to remember BBC and started watching after ITV took over.

    Pretty much everyone else I know who watched F1 back when BBC had it said that the BBC intro's were superior to anything ITV managed. The JK one during 97-00 was as good as it got for ITV.

  • duno how that makes sense?

  • i happen to hate the old bbc theme which they used for 9 billion years-its boring but i do agree that the itv intro's got worse as time went on.

  • well only after 05

  • yeah I hated the "lift me up" lol!

  • What a Championship in 2003!!!!!!

  • Thanks dude, in my opinion the best intro ITV F1 made so far was the one from 2000-2002 thanks brings back the good memories.

  • moby lift me up

  • wtf

  • they should put this one back up except with updated pics.

  • better than the rubbish they've had since 2006

  • best intro ever !!

  • the best ever itv intro

  • No i think the previous ones were better.

  • is their a full length version of this techno mix tune?

  • on the itv intro (2008) at the moment.. can somebody tell me the song that is on it?

  • The current theme song is Moby - Lift Me Up

  • By far the best itv has produced, certainly better than the one at the mo, it was due to be changed anyway, seeing as the two themes previous lasted for three years each, maybe the bbc will do a better job.

  • ITV's best intro, definitely better than the current one, this intro gets you more ready to watch F1

  • this was the best F1 introduction ever made by ITV imo. The switch to the BBC next year is good in terms of no adverts.....but i don't think the graphics on the introduction will be up to the levels that the ITV ones did reach!

  • ITV's best effort

  • best intro itv done. much better than the rubbish weve had since 06 anyway.

    still nothing on the chain though, no adverts next year YAY!

  • but u have the bbc to contend with and they loe puting yellow bbc boxes everywre and atempting to look good by doing everything in house, so u shall c some of the shcoking bits of the motogp pre race coverage... but no adverts shall be so good(Y)

  • I remember this!

    I love the remix they did of it ^^ I hope there aren't any more adverts next year.

  • this was much better than the moby intro, but still nothing on the chain.

  • The song is: Ain't seen nothing yet by Bachman-turner Overdrive

    BBC coverage will be great! No adverts!

    But I have heard on the news the BBC may be brining adverts to their channels as they are so in the poo with their finances.

  • they wud never be able to put adverts in they wouldnt gt away withit as well as wanting a tv lisance they shall just cut everyhtung that good bou the bbc and just put more repats on for bad shows

  • Yeh BBC run on our TV licence they dont put adverts in programs cause there money comes from us.

  • I thought that the BBC was one of the only broadcasters in the UK that are actually making money, apart from Channel 4 I think it is that are also doing quite well. This is partly (for the BBC) due to the fact they have a "guaranteed" future as it were with the TV Liscence bringing in money.

    Can't wait until next year though, no adverts and the possibility that it will be in HD on BBC HD.

  • only if the world feed moves to HD, bbc have no control

  • does anyone no the name of the song?

  • 'You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet' by Bachman Turner Overdrive, however this is a techno remix, the original is still very good though!

  • is there a full long version of this remix?

  • it'd be good if the bbc could snap this intro up from itv, that'd be something. an amazing intro, and no adverts!!!!!

  • F1s Going back to The BBC Next Year! Get In!

  • only good if the comentators are kept you seen how schocking the moto gp coverage is by the bbc

  • All I can say is they should have Steve Rider and Martin Brundle, and James Allen. Yes, he is annoying, but he's better than the moto gp commentaters, and if you've ever watched GP2, then you'll see why I'm defending him.

    To be honest, I think the BBC should offer all the people who present F1 for ITV a job, but mind you, that probably isn't going to happen.

  • good grafics in this theme

  • The face at 00:13 was Ralph Firman. He raced for Jordan F1 that season.

  • This intro is shit compared to the japanese intros.

  • Whos face is that at 00:13?

  • Justin Wilson maybe?

  • Sorta looks like Pedro Diniz but dont fink he was drivin in f1 then?

  • It's Justin Wilson. He was a British driver taking part in F1 for Minardi and Jaguar in the 2003 season when this intro was made.

  • At 00:13, bottom left, it looks like Ralph Firman. He raced for Jordan in '03.

  • it might of been. Last year they put Hamilton in even though he hadnt raced. its not uncommon.

  • Make that bottom right...

  • I have to hand it to them. ITVs F1 Intro graphics are immense, even fabulous. I always like this one.

    What I don't like is those damn adverts! I can't wait to watch advertless F1 on the Beeb again! Its been a long, frustrating 10 years.

  • it is a remixed version of BTO - you aint seen nothing yet

  • it is the bachman turner over drive bit at the beginnning

  • This sounds SO much like Bachman-Turner Overdrive!!!

  • best F1 intro ever

  • lol. best f1 intro ever.....you obviously were not around when the BBC had the fleetwood mac intro

  • i would also add that 2003 is still the best championship we've had in years in my opinion.

    the last 3 seasons have all been good and closely fought but 03 was a very tight championship race all year long and all of the races were exciting.

  • i mean Mika

  • I mIss SHUMMI he was the best In history! my Best rivalry was Schumi v mika ! it would have been better if kimi could have faced make

  • This f1 Intro is sooooo much better then the lift me up(06-07) one but the lift me up one is ok but this one is the best

  • This f1 Intro is sooooo much better then the lift me up(06-07) one but the lift me up one is ok but this one is the best

  • i think this intro was great far better the the shitty lift me up one. but i think the old bbc song the chain was a better song for f1.

  • Why did ITV have to get rid of it? It's not perfect but the graphics and tune are so much better than "Lift me up"!

  • I miss the Schumacher days!!!! First race of the season in Australia, up at god knows what time waiting for that tune to start up. BRING SCUHMACHER BACK!!!!

  • yer cant agree more i miss him to much. he is god.

  • I'd rather have Schumacher than Hamilton. Also if Button was in a good car, he will win the WDC.

  • I agree if Button had a good car he would win, hopefully in 2009 Ross Brawn will make a big change, good luck for Jenson

  • I am very hopeful for '09, I hope Brawn rebuilds the team like he did with Ferrari.

  • after the australian GP honda did quite well in qualifying and apperently they did better than expected

  • Rome wasn't built in a day. Even when Schumi jumped shipped to ferrari, it took him a couple of years to churn out a good car and get the team upto brawn levels of efficiency.

    (the 1997 Ferrari was not great nor was the 1998 one compared to Mclaren).

  • Those were the good days Martinz101!!!

  • lol, remember when the f1 championship was decided ON the track everyone?

  • definitely my favourite intro

  • Please bring back Michael Schumacher.

  • there just about due a new intro now (22 dec 2007) arent they?!

  • moby tune is better

  • that is so much better than the intro they have now

  • Why didnt they just keep this sorta theme? the one weve got now is okay but.. it doesnt really get you that excited about the race

  • Bachman Turner Overdrive - Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet. (This is a remix though)

  • This one was half decent, not like the pathetic one they have now.

  • this video theme tune brings me back such memories

  • thats the old snooker frand prix music hehe !

  • this is the micharl schumacher era i loved him, but i thought mika hakkinen gave him a run for his money

  • Yeah, whilst schumi was 7 time world champion, many say that when looking at the tilematry hakkinen was the best driver - ever!?

  • Does Anyone Know What This Piece Of Music Is ??

    Please Get Back To Me If So

    Cheers

  • bto you aint seen nothing yet

  • Note: This was recorded in 2003, (The 2003 Intro)

  • all those good memories...

  • anyone know what the music is?

  • i wish they would but ofcourse they would need to modify it and edit in the new drivers, i hope 2008's intro is better

  • Cud u just imagine if they just had Hamiltons face as an intro for like 30 seconds with music since they go on about him so much. LMAO

    Hes a decent driver, but IMO the ITV presenters make too much a deal about him

  • OMG i 100% agree. It is the "Lewis Hammilton Show" on ITV. Drives me mad. What happened to the other 21 drivers??? I tried to count how many times they said Lewis in a programme but after 30 mins it was more than 1 a minute. Lewis Hammilton Tourettes is what they have!!!

  • Why don't ITV bring back this intro?

  • Because the new one is much better.

  • That one was the best intros. A few of the best seasons as well, these new regulations suck BALLS!!!! Lol. F1s not what it used to be

  • Wow. This brought back a lot of memories...

  • best f1 intro ever the new ones are crap

  • Totally agree. 2003-05 was the best intro. The 2006-present one is total shit.

  • whats wrong with steve ryder? i think hes much better than jim

  • Because Rider is so far up Hamilton's arse its nauseating. Plus he fucked off to do the World Cup in his first year. Even Rosenthal (also crap, but funny) didn't miss a race until his final season.

  • Love this intro.. great build up at the end

  • Oh the good times without Steve Ryder...

  • waht teh song called :P that prob already answer buta canni be arsed lookin 4 it :P

  • It's a remake of Bachman turner Overdrive's "You aint seen nothing yet"
