Future
The organisers of Superleague Formula are looking to expand and evolve the sport very quickly with up to 18 races by 2012 and the possibility of a separate street race series so the fans can get up close to the cars and drivers. They are also considering introducing new classes of racing within the series in the idea of football 'divisions'.
In June 2009, Robin Webb stated he wanted the formula to eventually increase to 26 cars and a more diverse range of circuits. He expects the formula to attract more big global clubs and was keen to promote the idea that "Superleague Formula combines the passion of football with the thrill of auto racing".
- PSV Eindhoven has a contract with Superleague Formula until 2013. The contract includes the condition that they will only race if they are the sole club entrant from the Netherlands. Fellow Dutch football giants AFC Ajax have said that even come 2013 they have little wish to venture into motorsport pointing out that they would have no control over the running of their car in the series and that they are primarily a football club.

—Joe Strummer (b. 1952)
“The future is made of the same stuff as the present.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
