Formula One accepts the invitation of an American-owned team Andretti to join by 2026, but does not rule out the possibility of entering the grid in 2028

The FIA had approved the American team's entry but F1 was dissatisfied with Andretti's request for admission as soon as 2025 or 2026, saying that the applicant does not appear to be a competitive participant.' However, F1, the commercial rights holder, said Wednesday that it is willing to revisit the topic in 2028 if GM has an engine ready for competition. Andretti's decision that it did not believe Andretti would be a competitive team, that the Andretti brand does not add to the series's value, and that getting on the grid in the next two years will be a challenge Andretti has never faced before.

Michael Andretti calls his opposition to his soon-to-be-F1 team a "mystery," and claims that his plan will bring a lot to Formula One fans.'

Andretti, an American company, were granted permission by the FIA earlier this month, but that is far from the end of the tale. They must also sign an agreement with FOM, the body that manages F1's commercial rights and is heavily influenced by the existing ten teams, among whom there is opposition to an additional team.

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem insists there will be 'no rift' over American team Andretti joining the F1 grid as new 11th team - and claims the opposition from existing 10 outfits is 'about money'

Mohammed Ben Sulayem is secure that there will be no rift between the Formula One paddock and the prospect of an 11th team. Andretti, an American company that has collaborated with Cadillac, is hoping to join the grid after being approved by the FIA - F1's governing body earlier this year. Andretti was one of a number of teams attempting to qualify for Formula One, but their acceptance was far behind four others, owing to the Americans' financial support.
