mixxer has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
First point is an interesting concept Pete, but I think it flys in the face of trying to reduce overall costs. Some of the smaller teams struggle to have enough money to compete all the events now without adding the extra driver salaries that your idea would require and another question it raises do we have 60+ drivers in this country who can punt the cars around competetively rather than just making up the numbers ?
As with most all improvements, you want to enhance the racing not dilute it.

On the issue raised in the second point, its not VESA job to promote motorsport in Aus ! That falls squarely at the feet of the promoters of the other series you mention, you dont see the Big E's F1 circus promoting GP2, GP2 is promoted by GP2 Motorsport Limited
