൩Andretti Autosport, powerhouses in the US motorsports world, have lodged an official ap🔯plication to join F1 by 2026 which the FIA are considering.

The current 10 teams a꧒re largely against welcoming an 11th, and Mercedes boss Toto Wolff claime♌d last week that new entrants should “buy a team”.

But Andretti was quote൲d by : “We’ve trieꦛd. Nobody’s interested.

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

“You go there, and they’re not even interested in 🍌talking. I’ve been there, done thatꦯ.

“Everybod♛y has their own reasons why they’re doing things𒊎. 

“T🍌hey are trying to protect their own interests. ꦍI can’t blame them.

“Eve♌rybody’s been looking out for themselves. When I said that I got criticised because Iꦏ didn’t agree with it. 

“Iꦆf I was in their situation, I’d probably do the same thing. So I don’t blame the teams. 

“They all are going to look at this for themselves, b꧙ecause 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 l⛦ot of commitment from every team. 

“T🐲hey have got to make sure they protect that, and I understand that’s what they’re trying to do. 

“But in the end, they’re not going to be the 𒅌ones 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 link up with General Motors and Cadillac to bring a massive US influence to F1⛦.
