Thing is, most lower formulas are geared towards allowing young drivers a shot at F1. Yet there aren't enough F1 seats now to make the most of it, so positioning another series just below won't help.
On top of that, the more similar series' there are, the less credible all of them will be because there will be question marks over which is the most competitive. If you stretch it over three series (F2, GP2 and WSR), then there probably isn't a good way of telling which of these champions is best - especially if the tight budget constraints means the cars probably won't be as spectacular or as fast as GP2 or WSR...
It is a very narrow opening right at the top in F1. All this means is that there are even more drivers battling for just 20 seats and with the FIA upping the cost of entry, I see that number falling before it rises. It's madness to me!
As someone mentioned though, I do prefer the name :P
