America’s major automakers are getting back into Formula 1 racing. Following General Motors’ recent announcement that it’s applying, along with Andretti Global, to field a team in the prestigious racing series, Ford has now announced that it’s getting back into the sport to help build engines.

Formula 1 racing is very popular in Europe and has recently found increasing popularity in the United States. The Netflix documentary series “Drive to Survive” has been one factor that has increased the sport’s visibility in the US, and races in Miami and Las Vegas have been added to the race calendar in recent years. Before 2022, the only Formula One races in the US in the past decade were held in Austin, Texas, which is still the most popular event on the F1 calendar.

I’m not sure they have the long term commitment to make this a success. Also will the monolith that is Ford take any learning and use it in the day to day? Doubtful. They aren’t lean enough.

I hope they know F1 tracks aren't a left hand loop, they've got lots of bends, something American cars don't really do well at.

it'll break down on the first bend.

There's train derailment in east Palestine Ohio, you guys and gals and whomever seem daft to the subject which is more serious than a Chinese spy balloon

Are you daft

I knew it, F1 is dead it will be like American football.
