if those two leave there will be a lot less chances for the younger drivers to start their F1 careers. most of the rookie drivers start off with the small private teams.
So with the loss of Jordan and Minardi, i think we would pretty much see the lineups frozen until contracts start expiring. The only affordable way i see those two getting new engines is by going with the Renault enigine. i don't know how affordable Fiat would make their engine to wither of those teams, but since Sauber are running them i don;t think it would be that horrible.

And i don't want to start seeing suggestions of having one engine supplier for all teams the way CART/IRL does it. If a team can't build a reliable engine *cough*mercedes*cough* don't make someone else bail them out. Yeah that might shut ron dennis up but you're going to have alot more teams speaking up and complaining.
