As hinted here earlier this month, BBC Sport management seems to have bowed to presenter power, ousting Jonathan Legard from his role as lead F1 commentator on tv; and giving "summariser" Martin Brundle both the hot seat and his choice of side-kick for the forthcoming season.
Boss Barbara Slater will have been involved. It's a year of big decisions for her; she hasn't publically declared what her address will be when Sport move to Salford, but it's believed the principal home will remain Ealing, with a weekday flat in Manchester - the Van-Klaveren solution. Good to have management on hand when sport's at its busiest. Some of her staff are also concerned that there might be "exceptions" to the new, "tough" rule that key duty editors live within 40 miles of the Quays - unless, of course, there are new appointments to come in 2011.
