I think the reality is that there need to be two discussions on this for F1.
Firstly I think it needs to be asked simply "Do we want to allow customer cars in F1?".
The answer to this should be yes in my mind, it's not to say teams have to be customers but to say they can be if they choose.
The second question is something that requires far more thought, being "How will we implement and regulate customer car provision in F1?".
The discussion on this point will understandably be lengthy on this, as it rightly should.
For me, I don't think we should prevent people being customers, it may even assist in the revival of F1, but it does need strict regulation. If it's the wrong answer, it will fail in practice, but if it's the right answer and it's been blocked then what a missed opportunity.
