Part 8/9:
Looking towards the future of Formula 1, the potential entry of Andretti and General Motors in 2026 has stirred much discussion. Initially met with skepticism, the shift to an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) status has redefined the potential for this entry. Horner highlighted the significance of this development, recognizing that an OEM partnership brings valuable resources and expertise, paving the way for a competitive future.
However, Horner also cautioned that such a venture comes with significant challenges. Constructing a competitive chassis from scratch—while relying on a Ferrari engine—is no small feat. The competitive fabric of Formula 1 will continue to evolve as new teams bring fresh dynamics into play.
