Ecclestone: No F1 in HD before 2012

While Ecclestone says camera technology is now ready for his F1 production coverage to be done fully in HD, he thinks there still needs to be more fans at home able to watch it in HD, plus enough broadcasters ready to distribute it, before the move can be made. That is why he thinks it may well take until 2012 for the circumstances to be right for F1 to switch to HD coverage.

Sigh, what a joke. Le Mans looked fabulous in HD over the weekend, and all the other sports are benefiting from the move to HD, but oh no, not F1.
