You make a very salient point and I am sure this is why so many are critical of Bernie. I have been around the sport throughout this era and see the vast changes that have come in Motorsport as whole, not all them because of him of course.
Certainly in the '50s we could not have envisaged the world of F1 as it now exists
He changed the way F1 was run in mid 20th century to the present model and it is now up to the new triumvirate to change it to a 21st century model.
