Ted Kravitz’s whereabouts have kept F1 fans on the edge of their seats ever since rumours of him being sacked by Sky Sports surfaced on social media.
The Sky Sports presenter has earned a name for himself with his insightful and fun way of presenting. So much so that, a Twitter furore has begun as Ted hasn’t taken to the pit lane during the 1st week of Barcelona testing.
Rumour suggests that a fallout with new Sky F1 boss, Scott Young, has caused him to part ways with Sky Sports.
Karun Chandhok has been brought into the Sky team for the 2019 season, a sign that Sky had made the decision a while ago.
Chandhok and Kravitz essentially play similar roles in F1 broadcasting, with the Indian set to replace Ted from here on.
Now, while fans have been waiting for official confirmation about Ted’s whereabouts and his contract with Sky, Will Buxton posted a cryptic tweet about his fellow presenter, sparking another debate on Twitter.

Twitter believed that Buxton knew something that was happening on the inside, questioning him about Ted’s future, but Buxton confirmed that he was in the dark too.

It’s really not mate. I’m as in the dark as anyone. Come on, you’re not usually one to make an assumption based on a gif.

Not a confirmation of anything I’m afraid.

Now, while Buxton isn’t willing to confirm anything on social media before an official announcement comes through, he could know a thing or two of what has happened between Sky Sports and Ted Kravitz.
