What if F1 needs more is NOT NEED slimed-up the ladder bankers, accountants, lawyers and any of those office chair theoreticalist analyst 'wallet' and 'portfolio' carrying pests,
as these really are the root of the suffocation implemented on the sport.
Paydrivers and money-slinging unqualified, soulless economists.
get rid of all that misery, and welcome back real sportsmen, real mechanics, motorsport enthusiasts with great ideas and creativity.
f1 has become nothing but a 2-hour advertising campaing for corporate institutes, that 'accidentaly' has some form of racing going on still.
yet still, i dont think money is the biggest problem, its still qualified personell and using the brains.
Take HAAS for example.
Yes, i was the biggest critic of the entire outfit before, but i am pleasantly surprised about their achievements which are nothing short but worthy of many prizes for what they have done.
I do believe that teams like Sauber and Manor at this point too, are going to get into lot more trouble now with Bernie gone.
Bernie has had a big hand in how prize money got shared, given, and calculated, and Sauber has had many benefits from that [ Yes, Manor too, but so has Caterham and co in the past].
I feel with the New owners, that concept will go right out the window. I hope so really.
I dont want to see shameful, miserable ,money laundering messes driving around in the backfield anymore. I dont care that some teams are just much slower and less 'privilidged', but i disgust more when F1 is abused for prize pot money through sneaky and clever constructions from corporate suit-wearing, politically correct, slimy smiling thieves.
I hope Sauber will get rid of Kaltenborn and co and finally place somebody really competent and capable. Hell, Whitmarsh and Capito would be a great pairing i think.
Matter of fact, I think a combo of Ron Dennis, Martin Whitmarsh and Jost Capito would do wonders. Add Pomodrou, James Allison, Pat Symonds and Mario Illien and either a Honda or Renault engine and see it prosper.
