Is the rift between F1 and the FIA deepening? 🤔
teams want the entry fee to join the grid to be raised amid their displeasure at Andretti’s proposed entry to the sport with Cadillac.
While the FIA welcomed the developments, Andretti’s plan was met by a lukewarm response from F1, hinting at a behind-the-scenes row between the governing body and F1’s commercial rights holders Liberty Media and the teams. It is understood that a major hurdle surrounds a disagreement over the current $200m entry fee to be split between the existing teams, which is aimed at off-setting any prize money loss for the current competitors.a senior team figure revealed that a “strong majority” of the teams were against expanding the grid and subsequently diluting the share of revenues.
Mercedes boss Toto Wolff and Haas team principal Guenther Steiner have been the most vocal opposition towards a potential Andretti entry and highlighted their concerns throughout last year.So far, only Alpine and McLaren have expressed public support of Andretti's F1 bid.
