Hmm, perhaps Bernie should take a look at what happened to CART.

Yeah, but is Bernie playing the role of CART or the IRL?

IRL was a joke, but owned the marquee event. CART had the "real" teams and drivers. CART thought that they could survive without Indy, but the sponsors had other ideas.

This has been in the works for a couple of years. The target date is 2008. A major aspect driving this is that the carmakers want a greater return on their investment and have realized that they won't get it under the current ownership of F1.
