Baigu should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I'd rather they go with customer cars than 3 car teams. I like the "charm" than small teams bring to F1 & racing in general.

Instead I would include limitations to teams who do decide to use a customer car like:
-------------------
Example for 2014 season:

You could use a customer car as long as it's a chassis from the previous season but not from a team that finished in the top 3 in the constructor's championship in 2013. (meaning no Red Bull, Ferrari or Mercedes)
If you do wish to use a chassis from a team that finished in the top 3, it needs to be a chassis 2 seasons ago (2012 season)

One of the drivers needs to have finished in the top 5 (final standings) in GP2 (or similar "high caliber" junior series)

You can't use a customer car in more than 3 straight seasons. For the 4th season, you'll need to build your own.
-------------------

To me, these
I feel these "rules" would limit "factory teams" in being really competitive.
It would also help mid-field teams with extra income since their chassis would probably be more in demand.
It would also help young drivers get F1 experience.


I know it will never happen but interesting to think about!
