But if it's on BBC One, then it will be on BBC One HD won't it, not BBC HD

Going by the good old BBC tv guide which does not seem to include BBC1 HD what a load of poo.

That's the qualifying (early Saturday), the actual race early Sunday isn't flagged as HD on Sky but I am sure it will be though.

Manual dynamic is a total contradiction in terms.

Who cares anyway, each to their own. Just a bit of banter.
