I suspect that the short learning curve for new (or returning) teams is so steep, that it mitigates against the recent entries.
Honda and Haas have impressed me, and I look forward to them competing with Mercs and Ferraris one day.
As an aside, re Red Bull, I want them to win, even if it means ditching (cough, cough, wheeze) Renault.
yup, i just want to see a tighter season,
these blow outs don’t help viewership and nowhere near as exciting as when you don’t know who’s gonna win let alone win the crown
