F1 is not going to be HD for 2010 as the BBC relies on images from local TV stations which they can't guarantee. There is a bit about it on the BBC website

Found it-

"We will not be able to provide F1 coverage in high definition this year. The BBC relies on Formula 1 Management (FOM) for the provision of all of its live pictures and as such the broadcasting of high definition pictures is dependent upon whether FOM uses HD cameras or not"

Yes - only BBC HD (Channel 108) & ITV (Red button, when indicated) on the Freesat EPG at present. Also, Luxe HD - but it's only in non-Freesat mode.
