Just found this article (http://www.f1today.net/en/news/force-india-is-for-sale-and-renault-is-interested?) about a rumour Renault is considering buying out the Force India team. That would be better for the sport in some ways as you would have 4 works teams who are all well funded so could make for closer racing, however its bad as it would be another loss of a small team and the chance for drivers/ team personal to be given chance to prove their capabilities.
What do you think?
@f1fanf1fan And Red Bull would be….what? After all that’s happened to Team Enstone?
Just part of the silly season if you ask me.
As rumours go, it ranks up there with ‘Audi to come to F1’ … total fiction!
Besides, what have the manufacturers ever done for F1? And why are fans so desperate for them?
I would love to see Audi in F1, starting a German team in the old Toyota style is even better. It’ll be like the 1930’s GP heyday! Add in Haas for 11 and a US team and F1 is on a great footing going forwards again.
Personally I would love to see Porsche supplying engines/ or becoming a works team i.e. buy Marrsuia or Caterham. Be great to get F1 back on a strong footing going forwards again
@f1fanf1fan I don’t know how young you are, but Porsche’s last entry to F1 was a disaster! Supplying a heavy lump of a V12 engine to Footwork/Arrows in 1991, which could barely even qualify, let alone score points. I don’t think they’ve been keen to come back since!
@fastiesty I fear Audi/VW in F1 would be just like Toyota or Ford/Jaguar – a nightmare of corporate interference and head office board members muscling in. Having car company people involved always ends in tears!
