They have manufacturers likie Mercedes who do not want more competition Personally I would tell all the existing Manufacturers they have zero say in the matter as they each have their own interests at heart and not the Sport in general, unless they are willing to bring in a new Team as a 'B' team. But as you imply Mercedes has their bottom line in mind when they say things on this topic and nothing more!!

The biggest issue is the way that teams get $$$. More teams less cash, what team in their right mind would ever want that? None! So that needs to get taken out of the equation. I don't know how, but that is the biggest stumbling block to adding new teams. Existing teams should have no say in the matter at all.

I see this as a possibility that there is another manufacturer looking at entering. Andretti is still the short dick on any list.

Taking away the existing Teams "say in the matter" would solve half the stumbling blocks!! They are NOT interested in what's 'best for the sport' they want to make money in this endeavor and the more they can make at some other teams expense the better.

Payouts need to be made on the basis of a fully subscribed 13 team field, the payouts for the open spaces to be held in escrow until such time as a team is created over and above the existing number. There should be NO BENEFIT to the teams to keeping the number of teams small.

Brain fade; I posted this in the Formula One news items instead of this thread. Damn multi-tasking!

I saw "Andretti" trending on twitter and thought someone died.

So what? Cadillac brings big money to get their name on the car? Guggenheim partners is already on board to pay the $200 million fee. Herta? Everybody keeps talking about Herta. He's quick and won some races but he often drives stupidly. just what they need is a Mick 2.0

And take away their say in the rule-making process, while you're at it.
