If true, then yeah - wow.
Hopefully Mario's Twitter account wasn't hacked...

Interesting. Hope it happens. $200 million seems like a long road to me...but what do I know.

Pretty long interview with Mario in Racer or Motorsport or one of those. They appear to be in it for the long haul with substantial partners.

I gotta wonder how much of that is gonna be kicked back to Andretti Motorsports by the owners of F1...

One man who is seemingly opposed to Andretti’s team making the move into F1 is Mercedes chief Wolff, who has insisted that ‘ten teams are already enough’ for the championship, as quoted by Auto Motor und Sport.

Another one of the Mercedes man’s worries is the dilution of the circuit’s funds, as he added: “More than that [ten teams] only dilutes the income.”

I think Andretti's only way in will be to buy someone out, or with a rule change that eases the dilution of income for the top teams. F1 is done being an open sport.
