Andretti entry will be "great" for F1 – Hamilton
The FIA has announced that the Andretti project has successfully passed the first two phases of the entry process and has been approved by the governing body. The decision now moves to F1 for a commercial discussion, with a focus on the potential financial impact on the existing teams. Some drivers have been cautious about publicly supporting the Andretti project due to opposition from team bosses, but Lewis Hamilton expressed his enthusiasm, stating that there are not enough cars on the grid in F1. Max Verstappen also supports the addition of more teams, although he acknowledges that teams may have a different perspective. Fernando Alonso, who raced for Andretti in the 2017 Indy 500, said he would support his Aston Martin team’s position on the matter. Valtteri Bottas believes that more cars would be beneficial to the sport, as it would provide more entertainment and opportunities for young drivers.
