The FIA recently launched a call for tender to bring a new team to F1 in 2024. Most of the teams already present on the grid do not see this in a favorable light, like the Haas team director who criticizes this idea.<\/p>\n
A few months ago, Andretti communicated about his intention to enter Formula 1. In January of this year, she signed a partnership with the motor manufacturer General Motors, making her the most credible team to access the premier competition, especially with the support of Cadillac. [Here is the link to the article about Andretti partnering with Cadillac.](\/f1\/actualite\/29293-andretti-et-cadillac-sassocient-pour-arriver-en-f1.html)<\/p>\n
However, the arrival of a new team must be approved by Formula 1 and the current teams, which is far from being the case. For now, only McLaren and Alpine have shown their support for Andretti.<\/p>\n
In an interview with Sky Sports, Haas team principal, G\u00fcnther Steiner, explains why he does not want an eleventh team in the paddock. He notably mentions his concern about the decrease in revenue for each team.<\/p>\n
\u00ab What advantage does that bring? \u00bb he said.
\n\u00ab There are only risks, no advantages \u00bb.<\/p>\n
Five years ago, you could get teams for nothing, you could pick them up. Nobody wanted them and they were closing down.<\/p>\n
Now, suddenly, everyone wants a team. But there are many people who want to come and the 10 teams that are here are all financially stable, all well established. It’s a very good environment right now, no one is in trouble.<\/p>\n
If you add an eleventh team and there is a slight downturn in the economy or something like that, suddenly, people might start fighting to survive.<\/p>\n
Andretti’s arrival in F1 could trigger the return of Romain Grosjean to F1, a driver that both teams are familiar with, as Steiner was the team principal of the Swiss-French driver for several seasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
