Thought the new HD F1 channel was starting today. I am new to having an HD Sky box, do I need to reset anything to update channel listings

Oh wrong month then. Okay tar mate. It was the main reason I decided to upgrade. Cannot wait for the new season and see what Sky can offer in terms of coverage. No ITV style balls ups and ads every 10 mins during race I hope

Cor, not long until the new season then. Doesn't seem anytime since the last race in Brazil. I only watch motorsport on mute as I can't stand the noise and Eddie Jordan.

apologies link didnt work, but if you google it shows virgin gets F1 to join other sky sports on virgin, so guess if you get all sports it will be included for no more money

Glad martin Brundle is going to be on, him on the grid is great tv!!

Just checked it out for myself, and YES is the answer

Virgin only have access to F1 in SD , F1 in HD is a Sky exclusive.
