    would love to see other teams as long as they are OEMs

    The fuck do they think the Cadillac in Andretti Cadillac means?

    This whole saga has been embarrassing for both the FIA and FOM.

      But Cadillac isn’t a European brand so no way it would be a real works team /s

      Andretti Global has be an entity since 1993, with 26 drivers in 8 series and Cadillac racing placed 4th in WEC last year. I guess that is just not enough to experience for F1. They should of just branded as Monster Energy Racing.

        The thing that gets me, is how obvious it is they want to keep not only Andretti but Cadillac out.

        Remember when Domenicali talked about changing the engine formula for 2030. That two years after Cadillac was to come in as an engine supplier.

          Yeah I don’t get it. The LMC55.R is legitimately a good engine. Last year in WEC they places forth in the constructors championship. With the top three spots going to Toyota and Ferrari. Their WEC team is legitimately a good team. It is very clear at this point that this has nothing to do with them not being able to have a competitive car.

      I was telling my buddy Andretti Cadillac should rent the track after some races and just do time trials in their car and post the lap times to their social media. Sort of a “this could be us but you playin”.
