To get a new series off the ground they need contracts with circuits, they can't use any current circuits due to the FOM contracts. They need TV broadcasters across the globe and that will take time to sort out, plus with the credit crunch everyone is cutting back.
Plus they need rules and i'm sure if they tried to use the current F1 rules they will be copyrighted and so end up in the courts.
They also need someone independent to oversee the rules and series.

BTW, for all those wanting the British GP to be in HD...well I don't think looking at the tv schedules that it's gonna happen this year...maybe next...

ALL the races are filmed by FOM now so nothing the BBC can do until they upgrade their equipment to film it in HD
