F1 2010 was a bit of a let down for one reason, if you put one wheel off the track your time was disqualified. Total pain in the arse since the rules stipulate that you are within the track as long as one wheel is on or inside the white lines and running wide isn't usually considered a penalty because you are covering more distance. Anyhoo, 2011 does look pretty good.  I was toying with the idea of selling my PS3, don't think I'll bother now.

Aye, the TV is still connected to the TV via HDMI. What I might do is test it out with the PC version of 2010.

It appears that the 'one wheel off the track' crapola was only with the PS3 version, on PC it's fine.

Ok, the level of detail is stunning.  Even on replay you can see individual beads of water shimmering on the surface of the car.

Aye, but how does it play? That's what is of most importance.

Very, very well.  KERS and DRS are part of the gameplay and they've got those down to a tee as well. If your tyres are going off and you hit the KERS or open the DRS too soon when exiting a corrner, you're in the wall.  Been tinkering with the setups as well and even small changes can make a major difference, so there's an incentive there to actually do the practice stages and get the car set up the way you want it.

I'm tempted but put off by the fact that in the end I just didn't bother getting into f1 2010....

I just turned off brake assist until I got used to it. Difficulty is set on the race calendar.

Mind and check your quick setup with the engineer first, it could be on wet. Once you quick set it to the expected race conditions, you can then choose option tyres if it's a short race and tweak the aero settings etc..
