    No BBC HD is avaliable on the sky + boxes as far as i know. 720p is fine for watching in HD, it wont of course be as good quality as 1080p but you would really only notice the difference if you sat and watched the race on a 720p and 1080p tv simultaneosly.
    Good bit of mixed up information on this thread. BBC HD is not available on the Standard Sky+ boxes. It appears on the listing, but can't be viewed.

    Upgrading to a Sky HD box costs money from Sky, I think they were looking for around €149. However, if you quit Sky, and then sign up in your wifes name as a new subscription, you'll get the Sky HD box free and total installation will cost €45.

    Upgrading from normal Sky to Sky+ does not cost anything extra per month.

    You don't need Sky HD sub to get BBC-HD or BBC1 HD.

    F1 will be broadcast on BBC1 as normal this year, which means it will be on BBC1 HD. The drawback of this is that BBC1 HD is only acessable via Other Channels and therefore can't be recorded.
    Anytime it'll be on BBC-HD will probably only be the times that the broadcast changes over to BBC2 in the events where it over-runs it's schedule. Replays or highlights may also be on BBC-HD.
    BBC-HD is on the EPG as channel 143, so can be recorded.

    That is all! :p
