Maybe motor racing's going the way of Premier League football in that the vast majority of money is in the top echelon i.e. Formula One, with almost nothing [relatively speaking] in the levels below. The only category that seems to hold its own, and appeal to an albeit smaller number of spectators, throughout the world is national touring car championships.

If this is the case, the lower single seater formulae need to be significantly cheaper, operate on a national basis only and hook up with a touring car package. Something like the old national Formula Renault championship. GP3 and GP2 would then become the single international categories to graduate to.
