Yeah, GM would probably stay out of it. Keep in mind though the Corvette still competes in ALMS.
I personally would like to see Lotus or Porsche, but then again, I doubt entire company would have enough money to really compete in F1 without a major sponsor/contributor. Then again, people said the same thing about Ferraris in the 90s.
Another question to ask is that there are 10 teams (20 cars) right now in F1. Would FIA allow another team? Has there been a 22+ car field before? I remember a few years ago they had Arrows and Prost. . .
