He went for Formula 1 didn't he, and then when that contract ended by default he became their football presenter.

He's still there now doing Touring Cars only it seems.

He was parachuted in during the 2006 FIFA World Cup when Mark Sharman as the head of ITV Sport and demoted Gabby Logan, he said in his book that he went to ITV Sport press launch for the World Cup and was announced as ITV lead presenter which was the first he heard of it. He did go to ITV for F1 and was their main presenter on that sport from 2006-2008 then think he started doing BTCC when ITV axed F1 and of course did World Cup and Euro 2008 as main presenter for ITV Sport
