A bit to early to say about anything but having Senna and Prost wheel to wheel in F1... again...
Well, not only cinema suffers from franchising.
I hope they both would stand by their names, but I also think it is impossible. Probably, it is only gonna be tougher for them to face such challenge...

Are you talking about Rosberg and Piquet? Or going back to Villenuve and Hill as well?

I think it takes ALOT to get into F1, and blood is a competitive advantage to the right people...

blood, cash, sweat, name, sponsors, a bit of talent, sh|tloads of cash...

And sometimes pure talent (and a couple of very good contacts) is enough.

Not saying that the Rosbergs and the Villeneuves and the Piquets of this world are there because of their name, but it certainly helped a lot...
