Chilli I'm not so sure. I think the budgets these teams have make it more than possible. Think about it. Minardi's budget for the year would make you a front runner in any other series. If they add more races to the season, its better for us fans... and the teams rake in a lot more money. With more cost-cutting too, they can absolutely afford to run multiple teams and cars a la NASCAR and still allow their team members a family life. Airline crews have far more rigorous arrangements and there are a lot more of them, getting paid a lot less, in comparison to F1 teams.
