US-based motorsport giants Andretti want to be on the F1 grid but have been met with pushback from the existing 10 teams wh🐓o are concerned that the prize pot would be diluted.

Michael Andretti called this attitude “greedy”.

Domenica🍬li told Sky: “It’s not about ‘not welcoming’. This is the wrong wording.

“Michael Andretti is very vocal about joining F1. In my view it was not smart to say that the teams 🥂were ‘too greedy’ and protecting themselves.

“That is my opinion.

“There are others who are much less voca𒆙l who would like to come in𒅌to F1.

“There is a process to respect. If all the elements are the🙈re, they🅰 are welcome.

“W🅷e don’t have t𓆉o overreact if someone pushes the system.

“What is more vital is to protect the growth of the sport and🎃 the sustainability of the teams who invest in F1.

“The process will be done seriousl♔y, in the right way.”

Asked if Andretti had annoyed him, Domenicali said: “I have diඣscussed that wওith them. I said to them that I would have acted in a different way.”

Questioned about Andretti’s attractiveness as a US team at a time when F1 was so popular in America, Domenicali said:🦩 “We need to be prudent. There is not a negative attack on Andretti.

“If you are able to join F1🐓, you need to be really strong in♓ terms of a sustainable plan for the future.

“The problem in t𝄹he past - we had so many teams coming in, and coming out.”

More new engine manufacturers?

Audi, Honda and Ford are the big-name engine manufacturers who will enter F1 when the new regulations allow in 2026🅰.

Audi will power Sauber, Ford will link up with R💙ed Bull and Honda 🍌plan to return but don’t have a confirmed partner yet.

“A couple of years ago we changed the regಞulation to allo🐟w teams to have more engines from a single manufacturer,” Domenicali said.

“Now two ver🌠y important manufacturers are joining. Maybe some oth𓃲ers. I don’t want to say anything. But maybe. You never know.

“The righ༒t balance is between teams, constructors, manufacturers, to shape the sport.

“Technology has always been an important💯 part of F1 but it is not𒐪 enough.

“To believe that🍬 o✨nly technology is connected to F1 would be a mistake.

“The emotional side? If you miss this, the sport will co💝llapse.

[Manufacturers] are coming because they recog🉐nise🌄 the power of F1.”

Will Porsche enter F1?

Iconic manufacturer Porsche 🌜were in talks to partner with Red Bull but, despite that collapsing, Domenica𝐆li revealed that they are still interested in joining F1.

“It would be easy to say, for m🍒e, ꦉ‘just check with them’,” he said.

“But I🉐 think that Porsche is thinking ‘is there an opportunity’ that is available to them.

“The more time that passes, the 𝔉more difficult it is to be effective with a te𒐪chnical and commercial proposition.”
