Formula 1 does not want to admit an eleventh team into the competition. The racing series management believes that the Andretti brand would benefit more from Formula 1 than the other way around.
General Motors, with its Cadillac brand, had agreed to support Michael Andretti's push to enter the world's best racing series. Andretti had already published pictures of a car in the former Toyota wind tunnel in Cologne. The design has been in progress there since October and the car's design has already been published.
