You mean exactly what we had from 1999 to 2004? (That probably would have continued until 2006 without the tire war) Which is the exact period in which many of these manufacturers entered the sport to bring the fight to Ferrari. The manufacturers WANT to be fighting each other (and specifically Ferrari) with the best drivers and the fastest cars. F1 has been drifting away from that second goal and this is, in my opinion, why FOTA don't want anything to do with the currently proposed regulations.
Then there is the money issue, if revenue isn't shared at a greater proportion, I dont see any reason for any of the manufacturers to stay in the sport including the Williams' and McLarens of the world.
