In order to stop F1s downfall Paul Hembery suggested the following racing format today in the Guardian....
The new format would see three seasons within a season, with a separate series of races in Europe, the Americas and Australasia, with two meaningful breaks.
Hembery told the Guardian: “I will be talking to Bernie shortly about this. I haven’t worked out the logistical problems. It’s up to the teams to do that. But this is all about getting more interest in Formula One, and particularly in the Americas."
Under Hembery’s plan each continent, or series, would produce its own champion, leading towards an overall champion at the end of the year. The natural starting point would be Australia, as it is now, before moving to Asia. The circus would then transfer to Europe before finishing in the Americas, with rounds in Brazil, Mexico, Montreal and, Hembery hopes, California.

Well, if that´s the only problem....
Maybe it would help with regards to the logistic costs. Otherwise it could be pretty difficult to get the schedule together due to climatic reasons (think of Montreal for instance) and I dont know if it is such a good idea to interrup the season in a meaningfull way twice per season. I'm also not sure if that would really increase the interest for the sport....
