we all know it will never go back to how it was, you can't un-open pandora's box. you could start a series as open as formula ford and within a few months some teams would be going flat out on testing and researching the car. even if you had a dad and a lad, there's always going to be a dad now with an improbable amount of money to throw at it via a big team. they can make anything cost six or seven figures if they wanted to.

from an aspiring driver perspective, you could easily get up to some really loud single seaters without touching one of the "professional" fancy series. but do f1 teams understand and watch those series? no. although if a driver had a big enough wallet and was intent on staying away from the pro stuff you probably could pursuade them to take a look...
