In comparison to other sports - I see similarities with the current set up and the franchise model of some US Sports.

If we take examples there - Inter Miami springs to mind. Established in 2018, the team started playing in the MLS from 2020 as part of a league expansion.

I guess in terms of F1, perhaps we are reaching a situation (particularly when it comes to venues and teams) where a conference style approach would be an option? One series running in Europe, the other running in the Americas, Asia etc. Then the top teams from each conference coming together for a 3-race series in the Arab States?
