F1 to F2 to F1

A recent initiative by FIA named F2 seems to be an experimentation to get of the troubled times.
The trouble being from ricing cost and economic slowdown.
F2 is a low cost racing set up. It is expected to cost less than the GP2 series. This will provide a base for FIA, participants and organizers to test with new things to keep the cost of the sport but maintaining a balance.
This balance is a crucial one between Cost and Entertainment. With a cut in budget, we cannot expect high speed thrills. Thus the entertainment factor will go down. So will the earnings from the races.
The things are neededto be sorted out in this year if cost is to be brought down by 2010, and Formula1 be saved

Such experimentation may surely prove useful for a transition from F2 to F1, by 2010 if things get arranged right..
