I can't see a future rich gentleman driver wanting to employ 10 people MIN just to keep his weekend toy running. Those cars truely were from a simpler time.....

For anyone who baulks at the eye watering cost of attending a contemporary GP, Historic F1 is a much cheaper way of hearing a grid of wonderful Cosworth DFVs, getting close to some older F1 machinery and seeing it in action.
