'There’s an undercurrent there that I don’t understand, quite honestly, but if they want blood, well, I’m ready.'
Mario Andretti has said he was “offended” by Formula 1’s rejection of son Michael’s proposed Andretti Global entry to the sport from 2026.
“I was offended, actually. I don’t think we deserved that, to be honest with you,” Andretti said, as per “That’s another offensive statement there,” he said. “We’re the ones that worked it out, and GM said it over and over, ‘Andretti or nothing,’ and then still tried to take it.” While he believes the motivation behind keeping them out of the sport is mostly financial, he explained the opening of the team’s new Silverstone base is another sure sign of their commitment to making it onto the grid.
“It was made clear that our work is at pace, and as you can see we’re not just talking. We’re putting brick and mortar together. We’ve shown that with the team that already has a place in Silverstone.
