    I really hope they get in. F1 needs a good injection of unpredictability. However, it would be hilarious for them to have built a complete car and F1 says no.

      Pretty sure Formula 1 would be a defendant in an anti-trust if they said no. I’m not an attorney, but I remember reading an article about Formula 1 setting themselves up to be sued.

      They have approval from the FIA though right, so I think they could enter… but wouldn’t get paid.

      Thats an unlikely situation, but would be hilarious, as FOM wouldn’t have permission to show them on TV either…

      It’s one way of forcing an entry though!
