But I would assume that comparable countries might include Switzerland and Norway. Has anyone ever competed in either of these countries with a Nat A? Or know anyone from Switzerland or Norway who competes here or in Europe?
If this is the case, then all that is required is for the ASNs in Europe to add a post-Brexit UK to their list of comparable countries. It would be no particular business of the FIA would it? It is in teh gift of the ASNs. The doom and gloom argument goes that the pesky Europeans might chose not to. Well they might, but I suspect the prospect of losing the permit fees and whole invited grids might cause them second thoughts.
But above all this is Simon's point that it would be helpful to know now what is going to happen, which is dead right. But as said above, there is little prospect of progress while we are rerunning the referendum and the fact that no European negotiations ever come up with a solution until 5 to midnight, that is how it works

No need to apologise. I missed that.
Your scenario is excellent and recognises that clubs make good money from cross border entries. Hopefully common sense will apply but there may be a period while these things shake out.
