    I meant once he gained effective control of the commercial side of the sport by the way, before that era started is a very different story, trust me, I know that

    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    Too true, but if you're suggesting that Bernie would try and destroy a series that will never have the same commercial stature as F1 by investing a load of his own money into such a destruction project, you're making a wild prediction.

    still, time will tell I suppose.
    Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.

    If this new series could maintain anything near the interest that there is in the Le Mans 24hr race then it is a danger to F1. One could even argue that the quality of the drivers in the top teams is better than across the whole F1 field.

    Can a proper series maintain the same interest as Le Mans? No, not a chance, not even slightly close.

    I think in all honesty if this new series is run well, has lots of manufacturers (likely) and a quality grid of drivers then it's a threat to F1

    I haven't seen much about this.

    What form would this new championship take.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    I still feel Le Mans was better but hats off, F1 gave 110%
