For the 2021 F1 season, the Sky Sports Formula One crew have undergone a reshuffle. So it culminated in F1 pundit David Croft losing his slot in FP1. Instead, Rachel Brookes or Natalie Pinkham are going to take over the lead on Fridays. When she spoke about the change, Brookes admitted that this is new territory for her. As a result, she may require a lot more prep than anything else. She said [https://www.gridtalkmotorsport.com/rachel-brookes-working-in-motorsport/], “If you can imagine talking for an hour with nothing scripted for you, that is what it’s like. I have to react to what is going on our screens, which is provided by F1 and called the World Feed. I have one or two pundits alongside me who I bring into the conversation, and we try to make it as interesting and informative as possible.” Brookes also mentioned that there are often a lot of driver interviews on Saturday. However, she added that the channel also has some pre-recorded links from the qualifying show. Additionally, she has her hands full on Sundays, with track parade interviews, pre-records and more post-session driver interviews. Furthermore, Brookes also presents the F2 and F3 sessions, including post-race interviews. WHO ELSE IS JOINING BROOKES IN THE F1 FRIDAY COVERAGE? Since Bahrain, Brookes has been working alongside Natalie Pinkham on Fridays. According to Pinkham [https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/f1-nation/id1510367515?i=1000516895131], they are treating it ‘like a conversation and ask the questions of the experts’. She noted that there is a lot of emphasis on the simulator, and it has helped drivers in the buildup to the Bahrain Grand Prix. Williams driver Nicholas Latifi during the Emilia Romagna GP race [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/2020-11-01T135105Z_60602986_UP1EGB112H5Z5_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-EMILIAROMAGNA.jpg]Formula One F1 – Emilia Romagna Grand Prix – Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari, Imola, Italy – Williams’ Nicholas Latifi in action during the race Pool via Reuters/Davide Gennari For now, everyone in the F1 community is looking forward to the next race of the season.

<strong>History</strong>

The Formula One World Championship first started back in 1950. The very first F1 champion was Italy's Guiseppe Farina who raced for Alfa Romeo.

The sport has had 33 different champions in its history and a few of them are multiple championship winners. Currently, the driver with the most championships is <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-schumacher/">Michael Schumacher</a> with 7 under his belt. However, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes">Mercedes</a> driver <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lewis-hamilton/">Lewis Hamilton</a> will be eager to overhaul that. Hamilton currently holds 6 World Championships and stands on the cusp of equalling Michael Schumacher's record at the end of the season.

For a long time, Bernie Ecclestone was the F1 supremo, having founded the Formula One Group. He spent 40 years as chief executive of the company after gaining control of the commercial rights.

But in 2017, he stepped down and ownership was handed to Liberty Media who have been taking care of F1 since then. To herald their control, they even changed the F1 logo.

Chase Carey was the first F1 CEO in the 'liberty era' of F1 and will be stepping down at the end of the year. Former Ferrari team principal Stefano Domenicali will succeed the American in 2021.

The Formula One world championship is considered by many to be the pinnacle of motorsport. It has produced champions like Fangio, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/ayrton-senna/">Ayrton Senna</a>, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alain-prost/">Alain Prost</a>, Schumacher, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/fernando-alonso/">Fernando Alonso</a>, Niki Lauda, Nelson Piquet, Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen, Sebastian Vettel and many many more.
