Yeah, but V8 Supercars is like an plain, even ugly, looking woman who has a decent make-up artist and surrounded by good lighting.

I would've thought any success F1 has is more due to the fact it's the highest level of motorsport around, or that the FIA offers (regardless of what any other catergory may think). The highest level of motorsport will always be popular regardless of what dumb decisions FIA/Bernie have done. The popularity of the highest level of motorsport will also enhance whatever appropriate/correct decision they make.
