Andretti Autosport, powerhouses in the US motorsports world, have lodged an official applicationඣ to join F1 by 2026 which the FIA are considering.

The current 10 teams are largely against welcoming an 11th, ღand Mercedes boss Toto🐻 Wolff claimed last week that new entrants should “buy a team”.

But Andrett📖i was quoted by : “We’ve tried. Nobody’s intere𒆙sted.

“We’ve been to ♈every single team. They keep saying ‘buy a team’, and nobody wants to sell! 

“You go there, and they’r🦋e not even interested in talking. I’ve been♕ there, done that.

“Everybody has 💛their own reasons why they’re doing things. 

“They are♏ trying to protect their own interests. I can’t b🍸lame them.

“Everybody’s been looking out for th♛emselves. When I said that I got criticised because I didn’t agree with it. 

“If I was i💯n their situation, I’d probably do the same thing. So I don’t blame the 𓆏teams. 

“They all are going to look 🌃at this for themselves, because that’s what they need to do to be competitive.

“It’s a very, very expensive sport. There’s a lot involved, and there’s a lot of commitment fꦓrom every team. 

“They have got to make ꩲsure they protect that, and I understand that’s what they’re tryin📖g to do. 

“But in the end, they’re no𝓀t going to be the ones that make the decision. It’s going to be up to the series and the FIA to decide if they think it’s the right thing to do.”

Andretti intend to ಞlink up with Ge♋neral Motors and Cadillac to bring a massive US influence to F1.
