The question and answer between the family does not stop Andretti And Toto Wolffwhich began a few days ago, after the announcement made via Twitter by the ‘patriarch’ Mario Andretti about his son Michael’s intention to land in F1 with his team from 2024. The Andretti Global, this would be the name of the 11th stable of the Circus, has already split the paddock in two. Alpine, McLaren and Williams have shown themselves more than willing to welcome a second American team into the paddock, all the more driven by a ‘legendary’ family for motorsport like that of the Andrettis, while Mercedes, precisely through Wolff’s mouth, put itself sideways.
According to the powerful Austrian manager, it is not enough to pay the registration fee of 200 million dollars, but you have to “Prove to bring added value to F1”. Wolff also stressed that, according to him, it would be better to open the doors to a new team only if this were a direct representation of a manufacturer. Easy to think about examples of Audi and / or Porsche, much talked about lately. Speaking to the news agency Associated Presshowever, Mario Andretti replied to Wolff’s considerations, defending the project carried out by his son Michael with the sword.
“Toto is going out there saying, basically, ‘what do you bring to the table?’ – explained Andretti – I think we offer a lot and I believe that what we will bring will be much more than what we will have to share [essendoci un team in più rispetto ad adesso]. This is our case. The American market has not yet been fully exploited, but the Netflix series has really brought a lot of popularity. I believe we can bring greater longevity to the Netflix series by creating a real American team with an American driver. I believe that with our brand we could keep the interest very high [negli Stati Uniti] for many more years to come “.
