I'd assume not. If it were you would have heard something from the beeb by now.

The BBC aren't listing it as in HD so I'd say it's not going to be in HD.

Anyway if it was I would say that FOM, BBC, etc would have been shouting about it for a while.

Many be next year :fingerscrossed:

As far as I'm aware FOM already use HD kit.
Yes, Bernie wants more money for the HD feed - HD kit must cost a bit! - but I think the idea behind the Abu Dhabi HD was to give it free to encourage the broadcasters to pay for it next year.
