Andretti sends signal to F1 with images of future US base
Despite F1 rejecting the team’s initial entry on January 31, the team is persisting in moving forward with the belief that eventual approval will be granted. The unveiling of images and details of the 90-acre US site, set to be completed by 2025, underscores the seriousness of the F1 project. Ridge, a UK company with a track record in designing F1 facilities, is one of the key partners in the project. The sprawling Andretti Global facility in Fishers, near Indianapolis, will not only accommodate IndyCar, Indy NXT, and IMSA operations but will also reserve around half its space for manufacturing and design related to the F1 endeavor. The team, which has recently taken possession of its new base at Silverstone, emphasizes a holistic approach to employee wellbeing and engagement at both the US and UK locations. The Fishers project’s first phase comprises a substantial 400,000 square feet building, with plans for future expansion, including an Andretti Experience building for public engagement. The company underscores its commitment to creating a healthy workplace and fostering a sense of community, both locally in Fishers and within the broader racing landscape.
