I may be wrong, but I have this feeling that GPLawnmower is like an enormous bubble waiting to burst. It's all so artificial. I even think F2 is better and that's really saying something.
I have no idea how, but the teams were persuaded to sign up to run two cars at every meeting with massive financial penalties if they failed to do so. That's how they get a full grid every time. Teams are running drivers at a loss on the basis that some money is better than no money.
As for the drivers, they get real no satisfaction from racing the cars. Yes, good results look fine on their CVs, but listening to Valtteri Bottas and Alexander Sims at the last two BF3 meetings, they both much preferred F3 for just about every reason you could think of and said that every other driver in the GP3 paddock would say the same..
