==Theme Music==

ITV's F1 coverage used four different themes throughout its lifespan, each lasting three years. The first theme was a special, untitled, track performed by [[Jamiroquai]] which lasted from 1997-1999. This theme was commissioned in February 1997 and cost £100,00000 to compose. Neil Duncanson who worked for Chryaslis Sport and who was ITV-F1's producer was a friend of [[Jay Kay]] who is a fan of Formula One.<ref>{{cite web|title= Formula 1|url=http://funkin.com/the_band/cars/formula_1/|publisher=Jamiroquai - the funkin site|accessdate=30 October 2012}}</ref>

In 2000, Jamiroquai's theme was replaced by Blackbeat by [[Apollo 440]] which lasted until 2002, replaced the following year by a remixed version of [[You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet]] by [[Bachman Turner Overdrive]]. The final theme was [[Lift Me Up (Moby song)|Lift Me Up]] by [[Moby]] which ran from 2006 until 2008.
