F1 : Formula 1 must wait until 2012 for High Definition television broadcasts E-mail
Sunday, 13 June 2010 15:40
Formula one fans are facing a long wait for the sport to be broadcast on television in High Definition.

The newly published results of the recent FOTA commissioned fan survey showed that 70 percent want the track action televised in HD.

On Saturday night in Montreal, members of the media were given a demonstration of both HD as well as new 3D technology, after a Lotus car carried a 3D camera in practice sessions at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.

But even HD is a long way off for Formula 1, Formula 1 Chief Executive Bernie Ecclestone said.

"As soon as the broadcasters tell me they want it," he said, "we can do it."

"I think next year is too soon, we're looking at more like 2012."
