500 million just to join the club is a bit insane. F1 has been around longer than most racing, if not the longest series ever. To me that doesn't make F1 immune to demise. It will take a decade of poor support from the fans around the world, but it can happen.

I miss some of the great series we've had and would actually get up and go see a CanAm race were it to happen as a new series. Not having a roaring sprint sports car race leaves a void. I'm talking open cockpit cars even if they run a halo (they should). My point in saying this is to say that more driver exposure and indeed, engine exposure is needed for fan excitement. How can you not like seeing driver's head and and arms plus big stacks sticking up for the intake?

We don't need any more sanitary racing with blinding impossible cornering speeds. We need a drivers' series where the cars are a handful like they used to be.
