Todt's comments mean nothing unless he is personally committed to enabling new teams to join, and is willing to plot and stare-down Mercedes, Ferrari, and others to get 'er done.
On another thread, I read today that lawyers who are very experienced in F1 contracting all agree that there is NO requirement for teams to run 3 cars to load the grid. Bernie and others can request it, but the teams don't have to go along - and I sure that several wouldn't want to, because of the cost. That woudl inhibit the big boys from doing so, because they'd look like they're "buying" races (even more than it now appears that way) and fans would clamor. Nobody want a single team taking all 3 positions on the podium.
And, Toto is full of crap! Yes, Mercedes has been in F1 pretty much from the git-go (witness Fangio), but where are the Maseratis, the Jaguars, the BMW's, Eagles, Brabhams, and a half-dozen other great car producers? They were once part of the core group, too, and gave Merc all they could handle!
