    I know some of you are interested in F1 racing! (I've noticed all the car avatars!)

    Bit of a blow but it makes sense. We juat have to wait an extra 2 weeks now but hopefully there will be a Bahrain race later in the year.

    Bahrain is back on 30th October! http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/formula_one/13608826.stm Indian GP moved to December.

    Some teams are not happy because the closed season will be too short, but they are contracturally obligated to race.

    I believe the BBC coverage is in HD this season - has anyone got any comments on the quality?

    I also heard about the BBC messing about trialing 1080p broadcasts; are they messing about on the F1 coverage too?

    The HD coverage is OK, not as good as the HD we all saw when freesat first launched I think.

    The auto switching between 1080i/1080p only currently on BBC HD channel.

    I wish they'd make their minds up!

    It looks pretty sure to be cancelled.
