The boss of F1 is an old stupid fart who should be put down and the job given to someone with the capability to run it?

Olympics because of the ceremonies and the fact unlike the others its a combination of events, not just a single event or a series of the same thing?

Supposedly the richest sport in the world and its still in crappy 625-line (or digital equivalent).
Even the 9-day Tour de Suisse (a pretty minor event) is in HD on Eurosport.
Why, Mr Ecclestone? You have control over the TV rights, you get $illions from it. Even just the Brit GP on BBC HD would be an improvement.
I think its pathetic. :mutley:

well done Shaun   -)

Well you still get a lot of EU football matches or when a UK team goes abroad for the champions league and you have nice black lines down the left and right hand sides of your screen.
Some US stuff still is not even widescreen yet..
