ITV F1 Intro 2008

[xXToTaLHiTmAnXx]

What a tacky theme

[CharIiePresents]

BBC shits all over this.

[HeyMarkedOne8]

Raikkonen is on the rampage!

[iFookYouu]

It sucked on ITV but this seriously should be the theme its got more to it!

[feisty1uare]

LESBIAN LESBIAN I AM OBAMA

[monkeyboy85]

I miss this intro, hated the advert breaks but the swift cover F1 driver talking to a chicken made me laugh......bet i'm the only one who remembers.

[nitrox150]

@Skorponok424

Moby - Lift Me Up

[binnieb20]

are they gonna do this on sky???

[danthearsenalfan]

i swear once they went to an ad during a pitstop for hamilton. good riddance itv. BBC FTW

[creeslfc]

this intro is well better than bbc

[chrisbristol]

no chain, no like from me

[SerialKIillerrr]

awesome

[DoubleJAprentice]

ano this gunna sound thick but whos that at 0:19 apearing all dramatic? i recognise Hammilton and Alonso and Schuey. gr8 tune thou :)

[Fenyx6]

@DoubleJAprentice That's alonso too. looks like recorded footage too not the posing that the others did

[DoubleJAprentice]

@Fenyx6 oh yeah i forgot he was in a different team back then :L cheers

[creeslfc]

@Fenyx6 only british drivers were posing u dick

[soundslave]

So glad Brundle and Kravitz have carried on for the BBC. Coulthard is doing a good job too (when he can say Nick Heidfelds name right hehe).

[alexsmith3210]

Only good thing about ITV was them giving a shot at Pit Lane reporter to Ted Kravitz, glad BBC kept him on his work adds a lot to the race as far as i'm concerned.

[BrotherYounis]

i agree with most of the comments here that itv had me fuming when it went into adverts mid race.

[Dazzle08]

I'm glad there are no breaks mid race now, but why do the BBC insist on doing these cheesy montages, it's actually horrible.

[varunjk91]

Hi, Can any one let me know the music played at end of chequred flag after the race on star sports. Its played at end of qualifications too. I am searching for it badly. Can any one please reply? Thanks.

[97ginoVDB]

worst intro, the 2 before it and the chain is better by miles

[Monkiz12345]

what song is playing?



[ChicknPoo]

@Monkiz12345 Moby - Lift me up

[TheMoylesyRockin]

It's back next weekend I can't wait. I will be going to the British grand prix with my dad this year.

[Themedjai2]

good to see Australia is back to kick of the season! bahrain is a turn off.

[weatherallc05]

the glamour of f1, shown right here

[KungFuMil]

lift me up lift me up i am your mama

[Neinjuice]

I loved this intro. But I am glad the F1 is on bbc now, no damn adverts.

[MrHelloProductions]

this is bull, bbc - the chain was 1000 times better

[lazosrai]

the song name?

[Aragog969]

@lazosrai Moby-Lift me up

[lazosrai]

@Aragog969

thanks

[Spunkey1982]

Flip me off, flip me off la la la la la laaa.

Absolutely gash intro. Glad BBC got the F1 back if only to have The Chain again.

[BiggyInHD]

goosebumps every time . . (Y)

[Aragog969]

This intro is really good but in my opinion Polish intro is a little better.

[spread777]

Looks like a james bond inspired intro. BBCs the chain intro is synonymous with F1 and should forever stay.

[yydano3108yy]

i liked how it always froze just at the start lol

i miss this intro

[GMcOnline]

The best F1 titles/theme tune by far, IMO. I love the song (Lift Me Up, by Moby).

[takeshiC1]

Think both themes from BBC and ITV do F1 justice, but The Chain will always be the classic

Like the intro vid here though showing the british drivers, Coulthard in his casino jacket - brilliant stuff trying to make F1appear 'cool'

[PeprahUgbaja08]

One word for this video >>> EPIC!

[PeprahUgbaja08]

If it weren't for ITV F1, BBC F1 would not be giving us the quality they are giving now, 2009 was adequate, this year was far better, but i cannot help but shed i slight tear watching this, yes they had adverts, but they were f***ing brilliant. R.I.P ITV F1

[teemas10]

WTF this is shit compared to BBC 1. I was so happy when BBC got the rights to show F1 no adverts during racing which is good!! I think the BBC team are doing a much better job then ITV ever did.

[XxSpYdAOOXx]

bbc intro still better but still miss the itv one

[Dazzle08]

Legard is the biggest Idiot on the planet he really is. If he doesn't get the boot I don't think I can put up with another year. Just let Martin and David commentate. Heck, even Jake could do a better job.

[RizviNo7]

@Dazzle08 Legard is good

[Dazzle08]

I miss it being on ITV. Yeah it has no adverts on BBC but this ITV theme is amazing. Also I really hate Jonathan Legard. I wish he would think before he opens his fucking mouth. If he isn't saying things that are total bullshit then he is getting the drivers wrong. Ofcourse it's Massa not Alonso you stupid shit. MASSA'S HELMET IS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT COLOUR. AND ALONSO IS AT THE FRONT.

[SuziSuz]

Sudden rush of exctiement for the F1 in Abu Dhabi next week!! :)

[MrKeyboard69]

Coulthard looks very elegent in his Tux!

[showhiminbailey]

I miss this intro too - even if you have no interest in #F1 at all (which I kinda don't) this intro would make me watch the prog NE way cos its so damn SEXY ! - RIP F1 ITV - dearly loved and sadly missed :o(

[liverpoolmirza01]

i really admire this intro espically to f1

[ChazzzaEustice47]

I like how it shows our 4 Brits for that season

0:11 lewis Hamilton

0:18 Jenson Button

0:24 David Coulthard

0:28 Ant Davidson

[hitc5678]

@ChazzzaEustice47 samee:)

[liamwood2]

08 my fav season

[ManUMan2008]

This intro is better than the BBC's.

The BBC version is so bland and way too long as well. Prefer the music and the graphics on this one.

[ferrari2197]

BBC Is better.

[CODMWFAN91]

I loved this intro, but I prefer the coverage on the BBC. No breaks! Bliss!

[OTKSenior]

itv blows! xD bbc coverage is so much better

[CODMWFAN91]

@OTKSenior

Dead right there. No breaks with the BBC.

[nickforthetitle]

I MISS ITV COVERAGE. BBC SEEMED BETTER AT THE START BUT NOW ITS PATHETIC. ITV WERE SO MUCH BETTER. idiots legard and humphrey

[lukeperrin123456]

I perfer the BBC's Coverage i just think they made a massive mistake getting Legard to commentate he's worse than James Allen who was shit as it was

[mattybobs94]

SO MUCH BETTER THAN BBC'S SHITTY ONE!!!!!!!!

[YeefeiMr]

itv > bbc

better intro

better coverage

better commentator (fucking legard)

only problem were the bloody ads

[sutton513]

@YeefeiMr Better coverage? Are you serious? With ITV we'd be lucky to have qually and the race on ITV1 as long as it didn't clash with anything so that was about 5 hours coverage over the weekend...and with the bbc we have fp1,fp2,fp3 live, as well as qualifying and the race, AND the post-race forum! Which I make at about nearly 12 hours of coverage over the race weekend! And don't forget that we had adverts with ITV also!

[scottbob9]

the F1 on BBC is better as you have no adverts but i liked this intro

[romero2k]

the indy racing league oughta have an intro like this one...

[hypersphere]

I miss this theme and I miss the ITV coverage. ITV was superior!

[79pudgeman]

I loved F1 on ITV!! Shame about the adverts during the race which was soooo pointless!!!

[weatherallc05]

the bbc use the legendary tune they own,and the itv use sexy ladies. sex in carss:P

[poorpilot00]

Im very pleased F1 is on BBC now. I thought Itv were inconsiderate of the fans by having a commercial break every 15-20 minutes. When ITV do a UEFA football match the commercial break is only at half time, i dont know why it need the commercial brakes so often in the race. It made the race pointless because we missed so much live action.

[Sixthsense1990]

Notice at 0:22 Kimi has won a grand prix and he still doesn't look happy XD Whatta git, I'm glad we're rid of him...

[therebelboy23]

@ares obviously ur either italian or Spanish mclaren all da way

[rachel7000rf]

I miss this intro it was great

[Segaman19]

F1 is back at its rightful home on BBC1. At least if you miss the race, you don't have to wait till 3am for the highlights!!!

[lukerobin01]

@Segaman19 at least you DON'T miss the race :D I hated the ads on ITV.

[Segaman19]

@lukerobin01 A definite plus, there.

[jonahmoffatt]

ITV fucked up almost every race with damn adverts. the amount of times we missed important and championship deciding action was crazy( remember schuey blow in Suzuka). thank gog for the bbc. + that James allen was a cock

[ares12790]

LMAO "James Allen was a cock". BBC is better yes, but both ITV and BBC just suck Button's and Hamiltons Dicks. the whole race is always about those two dickheads, they hardly talk about anyone else, even in the commentary they just go on an on about button and hamilton who i both fucking hate. Come Alonso, come on Ferrari!!!!!!!!!!

[TheBaconToastie]

@ares12790 Maybe because they're British and we're in Britain you moron.

[kedharf1]

@jonahmoffatt they've got to make their money somehow :/

[patko1610]

@jonahmoffatt more sort of james alien

[drifter402]

2 much sex apeal but apart from that good

[Garfie489]

lol

[higashiougijima]

なんだか不気味なオープニングですね。。

蛇が出てきたり＞＜

[FormulaNone2010]

Ive just made a 2010 version of this, look in video responses.

[llpalm08]

its better on bbc cause thers no breaks mid race

[MrWindsurfguy]

i like the bbc cos of the intro song

[hazmanrfactor]

itv ruels bbc suks

[Lukedfrt2]

@hazmanrfactor BBC owns ITV,

and you cant spell rules :P

[poorpilot00]

Once and for all - Both this ITV and the BBC intros are incredible.

[georgeuseve]

I prefer this intro than bbc one.

[jamiroquai01fan]

itv were better at the coverage of f1 than bbc! However it is nice to have no commercial breaks lol.

[BosnianBurek]

I miss this intro.

[flipntazz]

Anyone know what the songs called?

[formula1madjbfan]

lift me up by moby

[BelfastCityHall]

Load of crap, F1 is not all about gambling and casinos and women and roulette and champagne, its about the cars and the drivers.

Fucking disgrace if you ask me, and the ITV idiot that approved it should face the firing squad!

[weefrasey1]

dude they made this trailer to celebrate the new bond movie which just came out becouse they were racing in the city where it was filmed......

[beyblader10171]

@weefrasey1

shutup weefrasey you egg head, you know nothing about advertising, prick, suck my dick

[weefrasey1]

u cant say anything m8 if i knew nothing about advertising i wouldent even send that comment in the first place and also u must be pretty gay if u like getting ur dick sucked so get to fuck.

[beyblader10171]

@weefrasey1

dont 'm8 me' and secondly dont think ur hard

[weefrasey1]

haha well dont think ur hard either "m8" :) u need to grow up

[beyblader10171]

@weefrasey1

i didnt say i was hard, did I you fool.

[Dimyan93]

Shut up you fool/

[beyblader10171]

@Dimyan93

please dont get involved, its between A and B so c your self out

[GTAstuntz]

Agree. We shall not fight with these people. They are dangerous.

[weefrasey1]

well u sure are acting like it xD

[beyblader10171]

@weefrasey1

lol sarcasm is a great invention right?

[weefrasey1]

yea it is, its just too bad that u arnt any good at it XDD

[F1Guru1992]

With all due respect my friend, this shows 6 times as many drivers as the BBC 2009 one does...

[Jant00]

F1 is totally about wild birds.

[GreatRailwayJourneys]

F1 is the Most Glamourous Sport of course its all about Champagne, Women Fast Cars, Exoctic Racing Circuts,

ITV Did a good job however the BBC one is more about racing than the lifestyle.

[DanJonMor]

well said, ITV did focus more on the lifestyle, like DC in his tux and the flag wavers. BBC focused more on the racing with the car liveries and the car being assembled around Jenson

[mikejons95]

love this intro, but the chinese dude kind of ruined it...

[astra606]

HOOOOT girls, wee hee! ^^

[yaminz88]

the bbc 09 intro shows the precision of f1 cars whereas this one shows exquisity and rrichness of the sport! :) both are great!

[f1fana1]

Every1 is forgetting that this intro was Voted worlds best F1 intro.

[mz2k10]

You people are saying it has nothing to do with F1

I wonder what type of car it is driving along the screen.

Wait a minute IT'S F1 CARS YOU IDIOTS and I wonder who the people are F1 DRIVERS of course it is to do with F1 Idiots

[sutton513]

@mz2k10 I can kinda see where they're coming from...they are going for the more commercial side of F1. The spinning chinese man, eagle, snake and roulette wheel haven't got anything to do with F1 really...

[mz2k10]

@sutton513 i think the chinese man and the snake is to do with the china gp, the eagle the us gp and the roulette wheel monaco gp

[Danfilm007]

@mz2k10 Oh Its Pickup trucks duhhhhhhhhhh Lol! Its f1 and if u didnt know that u really shouldnt be watching this

[BelfastCityHall]

On the other hand it is quite catchey...I cant stop listening to it!

[BelfastCityHall]

This is a disgrace to Formula 1!!

This is more like the intro to a James Bond Film, not F1.

Get it off.

[PanosDCC]

Totally agree...

[Fromzon]

it's indeed a disgrace, this is as if F1 is a beauty contest or something, instead of raaacing

[gp3runescape]

boom red im dead yeh i see your point

[GreatRailwayJourneys]

I kinda miss this Intro.

5/5.

[MrKeyboard69]

@GreatRailwayJourneys So do I...

But the BBC one is just as great!

[22013]

@GreatRailwayJourneys yeah, it was a great song choice for the 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008 intro. Best of all.

[TheGibsonracing]

@GreatRailwayJourneys  I hated it, it was one of the worst intros that I ever heard for F1. Long live the chain

[tiagocmr]

This is not a Formula 1 intro. This is more like a James Bond movie intro.

[morganroate]

yeah and Coulthard is Bond

[coolerdude44]

this intro sucks. it has nothing to do with f1 at all...

[secretbadger2]

the only good thing itv did was put hot girls in the intro but bbc done better but they need thw hot gals

[Necros1984]

Who is the model in this clip?

Cool intro by the way, though I like BBC's a little bit more.

[silverfireUK]

I agree with nortsoldier - Anthony does deserve another shot - but - he is a really great commentator too.

As for the info about Lewis's championship - try putting the Renault cheat at Singapore into the equation - Lewis was third - Felipe thirteenth - If Lewis had been second he would have had 2 extra points to play with.

[nortsoldier]

lots of things wud of changed the outcome of 2008 for instance if Hamilton had won every race rofl...LOL..but thats racing...the best thing about racing is ultimatly unpredictability thats why 2009 is so gr8 were seeing different ppl on the podium every single race almost...mclaren lost it now getting it bk force india stepping up fisi movin to ferrari Luca Badoer the most unluckiest f1 driver ever gettin a torrid shot with ferrari every1 laughin at him then fisi steps in and does just as bad..

[silverfireUK]

You can't remember Johnny Herbert then? British GP apart, that is what you call unlucky

[nortsoldier]

ahha yeh i remember johnny johnny was very unlucky but he at least got points and wins! Poor Badoer raced for Scuderia Italia (AAAH) Forti (aaaah) and Minardi in/at the time they werent rly that competitive..then he gets 2 races in a car that isnt at the top offits game bsides herbert dont h old any bad records badoer holds the record ofmost races started without a point bcos of his car not the talent

[Cynon44]

Fisichella is only making Luca Badoer's efforts look a lot more understandable. The Ferrari is not a very well-handling car, which I think underlines how good Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen really are.

[nortsoldier]

granted tho theyve had lots of time in the ferrari fisichella i think is a driver who doesnt adjust well to change so simply stepping into a car thats different is tough for him...Badoer hadnt driven that 2009 car since i think last december...tbh i think badoer shud get a shot with a 2010 team like manor or campos hes experienced enuf and he shud do it i just wish he cud get that so thurilly deserved point.

[Cynon44]

Manor or Campos won't be any better than the crap he drove at Forti and the Scuderia Italia Lola...

[nortsoldier]

well campos drove for Minardi...he had 21 race entries and 17 starts somehow i think itll be like chris amon when he made a team...awful but as for manor i dont know never underestimate i spose cud be brawn all over again

[Cynon44]

Too many variables -- because Felipe Massa may still have been in front. Because it was the safety car that Piquet brought out that gave Ferrari the opportunity to have that massive pitlane failure. Remember Massa dragging a fuel hose down the entirety of the pitlane and then being given a drive through penalty?

[nortsoldier]

Anthony Davidson man i hope that guy gets another shot at f1 he never got a fair 1 but anyway gd intro! :D

[mackey12160204]

very good opening.

[SuziSuz]

Jenson is so hot in that!!

[adriciscute3]

Best theme for f1 ^^ my dad watches it every saturday and sunday ^^ I like Button ^^

[romero2k]

this is hands down the absolute best fucking intro ever for any sport & it's perfect for F1. it encompasses what the series is all about, equal opportunity for any manufacturer or nationality. this should be the FIA's official intro for F1 in all countries on all networks...

[0255992580]

Look FUJI TV intro!!

[schaugenau87]

one of the best sport-intros of the world!

[TomBoiW00t0930]

i do like this intro alot but it just cant compare to the bbcs fleetwood mac intro, also on bbc there arnt brakes every 15 minutes. bbc true home for f1

[beyblader10171]

0:29 anthony davidson, id love to see him back in f1 in a good car, hes got some unfinished business lol

[F1Guru1992]

He's got that look about him in this intro hasn't he lol

[beyblader10171]

yeah i know hes funny

[andertond]

He hasn't finished his F1 career yet. Trust me.

[HunagarianWAR10CK]

thx

[HunagarianWAR10CK]

what is the song??? plz

[johnathan99j]

lift me up by moby

[mw897]

i like this intro more than the bbc one

[tedKL]

u gotta love the chain though :/

[Christy154]

The BBC ones probably my favourite of all time. Love this one too though

[patko1610]

well the music was been good but its was been the only thing what was been on itv coverages good but anyway i thing the formula one 2008 saeson was been the greatest season ever on f1

[willfaz07]

SHITE Compared to 2009 :)

[cronicx22]

far more glamourus then the bbc intro, but you just cant beat the chain, that sends shivers down my spine.

[Sharpie6413]

Never realized till now that chick at 0:29 looks terrified of that snake.

[safehandsltd]

Whats the tune on the intro?
