Genuinely relieved.
Strange how its possible to worry about somebody never even met but feel like you know.

I won't be paying for a full Sky Sports package if they stop the legacy F1.
If by the time this happens SKY does a deal with ITV or somebody for a highlights show the following Monday or whatever I'll make do with that.
Unlike with MotoGp which is easy to avoid the result until ITV4 highlights the following day, F1 result may be more tricky to avoid but hey-ho.
I brought up the really good new MotoGp on screens, especially the line that indicates when a rider has passed the finish line with a few at work that used to always watch MotoGp - none of them even seen the race.
Probably a peek into the future for when F1 goes Sky exclusive.
The double whammy of hiding the F1 tv coverage to lose viewers combined with a Herculean effort to make attending F1 practice, qualifying and races in person trackside unappealing makes you wonder if somebody is deliberately trying to kill F1 altogether.
Climatechangelizards maybe ?
On a lighter note having returned from supermarket proudly displaying my special limited edition can of Sure Williams F1 antiperspirant on my mantelpiece I was watching BBC Click when along came Felipe Massa and a visit to Williams F1 Museum and a piece about their telemetry.
Quite an interesting 4 minutes or so if anybody hasn't seen it.
From 19mins 55secs....
