All the talk about higher driving position, ease of getting in and out etc. are just excuses. People want SUVs because everyone has them and they are seen as the more premium option.
I dont agree. If FIA and promoter works properly and has anything to offer, I am sure we should have 3-4 manufacturers (which is enough for proper championship)...
