I think you might be right. Ferrari, Mercedes, BMW, Honda, Renault, they don't give a damn what's going on at the back of the grid

It's a shame, despite what those in control think, F1 can not sustain it's success without privateers. When the manufacturers pull out (which they will, look at Le Mans, BTCC, CART etc), who then will fill up the grids. The privateers...of which we currently have hardly any...

As Wrex pointed out in another thread, the privateers are a necessary part of the F1 scene as they pick up the rear of the field and the grid. No manufacturer/factory team can withstand coming last on a regular basis, as their sales would suffer, and the company would pull the plug on the F1 team. Think Toyota or Honda, and you'll get the picture.
