The sooner we can get rid of Marussia, HRT and Caterham, the better. All they do is get in the way of real competitors. I would much prefer an 18 car lineup than a 24 car lineup consisting of 18 F1 cars and 6 moving chicanes.
I remember times when drivers finisched in pointscoring positions 1 or more laps down. backmarkers used to finisch 3, 4 sometimes 5 laps down. Today the 3 backmarker teams usually finish 1 lap behind when they don't hit to much trouble, but with such a disadvantage you have almost zero chance on point.
Ergo: the differences are very small these days, and I would not call the 3 last teams moving chicanes. Caterham is close to bridging the gap to the Toro Rosso's.
