F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali mentions he will welcome Volkswagen to the sport

As reported by F1-insider, Domenicali laid the rules that Volkswagen has to follow if they want to enter the sport. He mentioned that sustainable engines should be the top priority for every manufacturer in F1.

“I think an important month is ahead of us in terms of the Volkswagen Group’s decision. It would be great to get started, but I can’t speak on behalf of VW. I’ve been part of this incredible corporation for a couple of years and I know how hard they are working on the future.” said Stefano.

” Our sustainable gasoline, which we want to use in parallel with new hybrid engines with a higher proportion of electricity, can open up a second way for you alongside electromobility. And that doesn’t just apply to the Volkswagen Group, but to every automobile manufacturer. 

With regard to Volkswagen, however, I hope that they will make a decision soon. It was great that they were involved in developing the new drive rules. Now it’s up to you to take the final step.” said F1 CEO.
