Yep, and some real humor thrown in on occasion.

One of my biggest hates of the Sky F1 announcers is they all talk at once! Often three of them are yammering at once and I have no idea what anyone is saying, and then they seem to break into laughter at some inside joke.

Some are knowledgeable, but have such thick accents it is really hard to understand them. I wish they just spoke English as well as most of the drivers. Alonzo would be a great announcer and way easier to understand than some of the crew they use now, and he is not a native English speaker! Same with most of the current drivers.
