Formula One is getting back on track after the unexpected COVID-19 pandemic. Everything from revenue to profit is increasing year after year. Rumors suggest that Porsche and Audi are two of the many companies willing to enter the F1 world. Having said that, they are yet to make a decision.
Multiple Companies showing interest, according to Stefano Domenicali
The Andretti family have registered their interest in entering Formula 1 openly. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali has revealed that Formula One’s prospects have attracted multiple companies. He said, “There are those who have been very explicit in airing their request, such as Andretti, and others who prefer to remain silent.”
The Italian also admitted that up to eight companies are showing proper interest, but remained tight-lipped on giving the names. He was clear that adding more teams will not improve the sport. However, offers from large companies will not go unnoticed, according to him. He added, “From our point of view, more teams does not mean more spectacle on the track, unless they are from important entities.”
