Couldn’t take my eyes of the BBC Sport’s Formula1 iPad

Watching the Formula1 Turkey coverage this afternoon I was mightily impressed to see Jake Humphrey swanning around with an iPad as his presenter’s weapon. Microphone in one hand, iPad in the other.. Nice! But ever-so distracting for the geek in me. He used the iPad in the brief interview he did with pole positioned Mark Webber. Has this iPad thing been happening all season with Formula1 or is it new? Much better than carrying a clipboard.

  1. Product placement and advertising by the BBC – Apple must be loving this free exposure of its new product!

  2. Jake first used his iPad in Monaco, he keeps his script notes on it, uses the F1 app for live timings and checks Twitter.

  3. I did notice that he had it on the back of the BBC yacht in Monaco……. Glad to see our licence fee is going to good use for once.
