I hope FOTA go full steam ahead. Mosley is in a very weak position. His new paper tiger teams will find it very hard to setup without technical assistance from the existing teams.
The best teams, drivers, sponsors will all be in FOTA, and that is what people will watch and consider to be the World Championship. Mosley's F1 will last a season at most, if it happens at all. It won't drag on like Champcar and IRL did, as it was a much more even split.
The car manufacturers want to use the sport as a marketing tool to sell cars. It is therefore implicit that they will treat fans as customers, unlike Mosley and Ecclestone who are primarily concerned with their own power.
