On January 5th, Andretti announced its partnership with the automotive manufacturer General Motors through Cadillac. They’re aiming to become the 11th team in the paddock.<\/p>\n
The president of the FIA, Mohammed Ben Sulayem, is indeed about to launch a call for applications to evaluate the files of potential future entrants in Formula 1. For now, Andretti is the only team to have applied.<\/p>\n
The current F1 teams, on the other hand, are showing reluctance and believe that 10 teams are enough. So Andretti is waiting for a response, but nothing is certain since this possible arrival will only happen for the 2025-2026 season.<\/p>\n
On his part, Romain Grosjean, interviewed by The Race, says he is interested. “I think a lot about Formula 1, one thing I have learned is to never say never,” he declared before adding, “I think this is excellent news for Andretti. They are working really hard to achieve this goal, so I really hope it will happen.”<\/p>\n
In 2025, Frenchman will be 40 years old, so it is unlikely to see him back as a pilot. However, his experience in F1 can still bring a lot to the team, and Grosjean himself is ready to be part of the project as an advisor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
