Interesting - a new racing series to watch?
Wonder if there'll be a Team Canada, and who might be on it. Any suggestions?

If potential new competitors are turned off from competing in what the FIA currently defines as the World Championship, and opt instead to establish their own championships, then it follows that the current definition does not suit all those who would be able to contest it.
It follows, then, that the current world championship definition is insufficient: as the best in the world could naturally defeat all challengers, then it must be possible for all credible challengers to face the title holder. In sport, qualification to do so must be determined in competition, and not in Bernie's trailer.
One must hope that instead of continually conceding to FOCA, the FIA might regain the desire to pursue a credible World Championship. The current definition gives us champions among those entrenched in a society that's closed off from even the world's wealthiest shieks. Choose your opponents and you're sure to win every time.

On second thought, I'm clearly wrong about one point: Bernie has a motorhome, not a trailer.
