Morris Dancer should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
There's money for anything if it's marketable, which F3 isn't and a cost-controlled bulletproof F5000 is. It just needs someone with the vision and the $$$ to underwrite it.

Obviously it would be a top-line category, so there'd still need to be an intermediate category, but F2000 (preferably with a little bit more grunt) would have to be cheaper than F3 because the FF1600 teams could use a lot of their existing equipment and spares.

I'd like to think there is, but there probably is not.

I think if so, you'd have to decide what the point of it is. Is it designed to be a front line professional series or to bring up new drivers?
