“Rodin Cars participated in tജhe recent FIA process aimed at gaining entry into the prestigious Formula 1 World Championship. Unfortunately, our bid was not su𝓀ccessful,” a Rodin statement read. 

“We wish to emphasise that our objective here is not to criticise the FIA or seek a reconsideration of its decisio💖n. We fully respect and accept the outcome. Our sole purpose is to release information 🥃we consider in the public interest to inform the Formula 1 community.

“Recent information suggests, a🌺s anticipated from the outset of this process, that the o🥂nly successful applicant will be Andretti Global.” 

On its potential driver line-up, Rodin added: “We committed to reserving one seat for a female drivﷺer. 

“We have tested Liam Lawson, Jamie Chadwick and Louis Sharp at our facility in New Zealand, in both an F3 car and our own car, the Rodin FZed, wh♌ich is a car some🍸what quicker than a GP2/F2 car. 

“Jamie performed exceptionally well, and if she was 👍available, we would have no hesitation in putting her in a seat.”

Its proposal would have seen it♒s prospective F1 team fully operate from New Zealand, while Rodin also revealed it൲ had “the opportunity of discussions” for a collaboration with Ferrari. 

Through its acquisition of Carlin, Rodin argued that it offers a “direct ladder” to F1 through several championships including F4,✤ GB3, F3 and F2. 

Rodin claimed t✤hat Dicker’s personal wealth, estimated to be around $1ﷺbillion, would have made it financially equipped to fully fund its planned F1 programme.
