Did the chassis cost change? From memory it was stable however the spare parts were the concern of the teams.
The cost of operating the current car is less that the previous car & less that what it would be in an open formula.
By no means am I suggesting this the best structure long term for the series, however the current situation has reduced costs, just not to the extent that was planned or presented to teams in 2011.
