Organizations unaffiliated with FIA can do whatever they want. There are not many of them though. Even American motorsport is affiliated with FIA [1] even if I think that the link has been very weak for most of its history. One problem surfaced as many times as Formula 1 teams threatened to break away from FIA and do their own league is that FIA could ban all FIA seriest to race on circuits that organize races for the break away series. That's bad for circuits because they lose many weekends of income so nobody wants non FIA series.
