Martin Brundle has warned F1 to avoid being ‘overconfident’ after re✤jecting Andretti’s bid to join the grid in 2025.

Earl🔯ier this year, F1 announced that they wouldn’t be accepting Andretti’s app♏lication to become the sport’s 11th team.

This came as no surprise after the F1 teams expressed their disapproval 🔯of Andretti from the start.

F1 cited the fac﷽t that Andretti wouldn’t bring enough “value” to the sport, but would consider their application if they were backed by a manufacturer, such as General Motors.

Speaking on the latest episode of the Sky Spo🅘rts F1 podcast, Brundle questioned F1’s decision to reject Andretti given that it was only recently that some teams’ futures were un♚certain.

“I think F1 mustn't be too confident - you’ve got to think a bit longer term,” he said. “I give you just a short while ago, Force India was about to c🌜ollapse - everybody losing their jobs, the team at Silverstone evaporating, going broke.

“That has turned into the incredible in♕vestment that Lawrence Stroll has made at Aston Martin. There are a number of other teams that were pretty sh🎶aky four or five years ago.

“We’re now sitting with this magnificent position we found ourselveꦗs in where all the teams are solvent and doing good business. Let’s not assume it’s always going to stay. What goes around comes around on 🍰that.

“We need to think long and ♏hard about having some mওore credible teams.”

The reaction to the Andretti news has gone under the radar after it came just 24 hours before 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton’s bombshell move to Ferrari was announced.

Brundle admiꦛtted that he expected a stronger fಌightback from Andretti.

“I am very surprised we haven’t heard anything from the FIA or really from Andretti,” he added. “I would personally like to see an 11th and indeed 12th team on the grid. It’s another two team managers to speak to and another fo💞ur drivers, four cars to look at.

“I think the show could do with it. Nothing to do with Andretti in that respect. I understand why a lot of the teams in F1 were like ‘no we don’t want to share the pie out anymore’, our pit lane is full with all the things 🍷that go on such as hospitality - whether it’s Brad Pitt movie or whatever.

“They think Andretti with a customer team won’t really be bringing anything to F1 - it will take more than it can give. Whether they’re regrouping🍸 quietly 🌸for antitrust or anti-competition laws in the EU, I don’t know. It all seems to have gone away very easily.”
