The "Chain" cannot be replaced I remember it was tried before and failed spectacularly. Unfortunately Sky's choice of music does not fit F1 IMO.

Re: SKY F1 HD Channel, Any Chance?
Any one got issues with the Sky Sports F1 logo being off the screen slightly? The top of the logo on my Tivo is off the screen. Its fine on V+ all other Sky Sports channels are fine thou. Also are we defo going to get red button on Sky Sports F1 and if so when will the first bit of content be on it as when press button on Sky Sports HD 1 etc it doesnt show the Sky Sports F1 logo?

It's the fact that it is just one channel that makes me think that it does just need a few tweaks. After all it is a brand new channel.

Re: SKY F1 HD Channel, Any Chance?
The logo is very close to the top of the frame - closer than on any other Sky channel. But I agree that your TV is cutting off the top few lines. See if it has an overscan setting you can adjust.
Here's a comparison with Sky Sports 1.
