No, I think it's a rubbish idea, especially as several teams want to join. Fia made such a balls up if selecting the new teams.
I also think it will damage the sport far more than any excitement that article makes up.

Why would a team join with so many top runners. How about mid pack teams, why would they race. Points would be artificial only 2 can score so then mid packs get some bonus points by default,

Don't like the idea one bit.

As pointed out in the article, why bother having uncompetitive cars circulating at the back year after year? You can solve that and the lack of testing and new driver development in one go.

This is only if, as Skeeter says, every team has 3 cars and if several teams are going to drop any way - most likely Caterham, Marussia and Sauber (Toro Rosso would go if RB could run a third car no doubt). Personnel and kit could be moved to the other teams.

So instead of 11 teams and 22 cars, you could have say 8 teams and 24 cars of competitive cars.
