Shocking news is buzzing in the paddock: Liberty Media now appears to support the idea of an 11th team in Formula 1. Here’s the latest.
A sensational development has hit the headlines just after the conclusion of FP2 in Las Vegas: Liberty Media seems to have reversed its stance on additional teams in Formula 1, paving the way for an 11th team to join the grid.
According to RacingNews365, an announcement about a new Formula 1 team is expected in the coming hours or days. All eyes are on Andretti, which, with the crucial backing of General Motors, is on track to enter the F1 grid after lengthy negotiations.
Regarding the power unit, Andretti is reportedly deciding between Ferrari and Honda. The agreement is expected to cover two seasons, 2026 and 2027.
This unfolding story seems to have finally resolved the tensions between Andretti and Liberty Media. As a result, 2025 is likely to be the last year with “only” 20 cars on the grid.
