It still is what it was. First, given the limited number of open spots and the pay and prestige, they will attract the top drivers. And it is, as it always has been, about the best and most reliable technology. Be it 1958 or 2008, being the fastest car on the track for half a race doesn't get a championship or a win. And while there are many examples of great drivers doing something amazing with inferior cars you'll find they did not win regular or certainly win championships while driving these cars - same then as today. You say to bring back equal speed and reliability? Strange, what you really seem to be complaining about is the direct result that the current generation of cars ARE so equal and reliable. If there were greater differences in speed, and situational speed, and a enough failures... well, in the end, you'd see much different championship. And not exactly a better one, just a very different one (be careful what you wish for).

The reliancedependencyof todays f1 is geared on the car to narrow the development of slicks next to impossible to narrow the former skills and reduce the gap.

CART was the racing king in the U.S. for forever, and then talk of changing the cars, and changing the face of the sport led to the break-up of the empire. I don't know if that could happen in a sport like FIA, with its world-wide appeal. but I don't think I would risk it just yet. Be careful what you wish for.
