The problem at the moment is that there are far too many feeder categories and its very difficult to accurately assess the relative strength of the drivers. To compound the situation, there are rumors that a number of seats in the new GP teams next year will be filled with pay drivers... so performance will be superceeded by wallet size - a reminder that motor racing is not a meritocracy.
As far as I remember though, all that F2 promised was a superlicence to the championship winner and definitely not a guaranteed GP seat.
