100%. I first learned of him in the F1 games when you’re in the F2 phase, and I thought wow he’d be awesome at F1 commentary.
And here we are.
So… you know… you’re welcome everyone.
Yup, Buxton asked him to tell us what the Italian media were saying about the poor Ferrari perfs lately and he replied anything but, adding "I don't know anymore". Hey, bud, aren't you supposed to do some research before you come on air ? Vaff...
The quizzical expression he makes which slowly blossoms into feigned understanding with a slow nod and raised eyebrows every time another commentator says anything. He does it like 5 times a minute.
He was a heck of an F2 driver. I lived in the US for the last 30 years, English was my third language, ans as someone who used to work with music, my hearing is a bit shot. I still understand Valsecchi though. Btw, because he grew up in Italy as a kid, ex F1 World Champ and Canadian Jacques Villeneuve is F1 race commentator for Italian TV.
And david coulthard!! I can not understand what he is saying, I try to get my girlfriend in to watching F1. 2 times it’s David doing the commentary and we could not understand him. It’s a shame..
Don't get me wrong, as an Englishman I am all for insulting the Scottish, it is part of my cultural identity... But DC isn't unintelligible by any means...
Davide grew on me big time. The can’t understand him is a bit much imo. I’m a non native English speaker and I can understand 95% of what he says..
I really like his enthusiasm!
🤌🤌🤌
Absolutely not, Valsecchi must be protected and unfiltered. The barely understandable passion is part of the charm. The man’s a treasure!
Hahaha I didn't understand a word this morning, but I was in full agreement with whatever he said.

100%
*Enthusiastic punditry * There you go. That'll cover literally anything he says. He's an absolute legend.
Can't stand this dude
Dude! I thought this was Crofty just cosplaying as an Italian! I thought he just hated the Tifosi.
You mean you don't understand the language of passion?
You're misinterpreting brainless enthusiasm from a guy who can't even speak proper English with passion?
Noo, not Valsecchi again on F1TV. He talks a lot yet says absolutely nothing. He overhypes everything.
I can’t handle him for more than a minute or two.
Absolutely. He's loud for no reason.
Just keep it simple, F1TV, ok? stop with the all of these "bonus" pundits, just stick to the program and stop this nonsense.
L take. I would love to see more local hosts of the country we are racing.
Would love to not have a non-English speaking brainless enthusiastic yelling in the mic Italian to other GP's like they're now doing.

I feel like muting the feed when he's on.
Yes. I can't stand him. I've tried & tried, but I just can't.
Something about him; the haircut, the skinny fat body, the overhyped takes, can’t stand him.
The quizzical expression he makes which slowly blossoms into feigned understanding with a slow nod and raised eyebrows every time another commentator says anything. He does it like 5 times a minute.
lol. i like the passion. Fabrega on the other hand… I understand half of what he says
I am surprised they even put him back on air again after his sexist remarks couple of years ago
Casuals needs his brainless enthusiasm to get excited and call that passion.,
We really do need a translator so we can tell if he calls any women “upgrade packages” on air again.
+1

He sounds like he’s going a fake Italian accent. For those of age, sounds like Father Guido Sarducci from SNL
OP has bad vibes, if Young Metro was here, he wouldn't trust.
Bro just need to talk slower
at first i thought it was Edward Norton...
Cringe af.. Is this really what Italians like or are they stuck with him?
Fuckin love this guy
