In early 2024, F1 announced that it had recommended that Andretti would not participate in Formula 1 in 2025 or from 2026, but did indicate that Andretti might be welcome from 2028, provided General Motors will step in, could there still be a way for Andretti onto the grid before 2028?
Despite Andretti’s eagerness to enter Formula 1 and Grand Prix racing as early as 2025, the F1 organization currently shows no signs of cooperation. A recent negative opinion by F1 regarding Andretti’s potential entry for the 2025 or 2026 season has created doubt among fans, indicating a possibly delayed debut until 2028. Nonetheless, the FIA has given its approval for Andretti to enter F1, based on various regulations and detailed project plans submitted by the team. The final decision on Andretti’s participation will be influenced by both the FIA and FOM, considering sporting, technical, and commercial aspects of the team’s entry. Despite facing obstacles, Andretti remains optimistic about joining the grid in 2026, continuing to develop car designs and conducting tests, signaling a serious commitment to their F1 project.
