in my opinion its should be opened back up
sod this you cant have more than 1 engine because the pauper at the end of the pit lane cant afford 2 rubbish.
F1 is the pinacle of motor racing, its supposed to attract the best, money, drivers, mechanics.........
So do you want to see 8 equal teams? best bet is a 1 make series then.
CART has a number of chassis, engine, tyre manufacturers so there is less difference between the teams, it doesnt stop some dominating though....
I would honesty like to see Turbo cars back, limited fuel, but enough for a reasonable amount. Now the teams would have an option, and some of the fuel tactics would have to come back in about running lean, using overtaking boost etc etc

Best rule? No rules. If you want a nitrous powered V25 running solid fule then its OK.
BUT!
Money limit.
2 mill on engines per year.
5 mill on chassis per year etc.
Although that might lead to people blagging stuff as "gifts" and stuff so I'd dont know how it would be enforced.
Alternativly you could always implement some geezer rules to spice things up a little.
All drivers have to go out on the slash the night before race day.
Starting position would be decided on a punch up in the kebab shop after the night has ended.
2 minutes before the race all drivers must snorkel a smirnoff Ice.
Points awarded for not only the finishing position, but the lariest broadside round a corner nominated for lairy broadside potential.
Compulsary pitstops will be kept, but the driver has to neck a pint before he can leave the pitlane.
At the end of the race the winner cannot claim his points until he had done an extended donut session on the startline and snogged at least three pitlane dollies.
Defintly more watchable then.

Better still, all the drivers line up before the race to punch Bernie Ecclestone and awarded points Style, Control, Damage and aggression a la Robot Wars.
Do you reckon that in the Ferrari pit when theres a queue for the bog that Schumacher just walks up to the front and sits down ?
