    Question is, what will all us fans now call the "old" series when it runs spec engines with F3 teams?

    I say: "Faux-mula One"

    Grand Prix World Championship or World Championship Grand Prix Racing sound about right.

    Formula Ten is a long ways away from Formula One in terms of quality neuron feel.

    Gran Prix Racing.

    Sounds odd at first, but the acronym works.

    GP-R.

    Anything with the words WORLD and SERIES shouldn't be included.

    :p

    I'd call it Formula CORE :D

    I'd put a fiver on this.

    Legally and for marketing reasons, "Formula" and "GP" probably make the most sense (public domain/instant recognition), along with "Championship."

    Please not! The plethora of "X"s in every product name is seriously annoying...

    I think it will be something with "Grand Prix". The marketing departments of the manufacturers are large enough to find something ;)
