I think that once Liberty Media asserts firmer control of the sport, things will be better. I've already noticed that steward decisions seem to be faster and more consistent. Remember having podiums changed days after a race was over? Or having a red car cause a crash and the crashee getting penalized for being in the way?
Under Bernie, Ferrari had the most say in how the sport was run, followed by other teams. The teams favored rules that they thought would give them an advantage but have also degraded the sport. Some examples are the hybrid engines, current engine penalties, a push for faster lap times. Some things that haven't happened under the current system are a push for better racing, equitable disbursement of winnings, equitable treatment by stewards, and all teams having equal say in the sport.
