The FIA just rejected an established giant like Andretti. There is zero chance a Chinese team builds the infrastructure and secures grid approval from scratch in under three years.
Even with funding, F1’s real bottleneck is politics: teams won’t dilute prize money unless the newcomer brings massive guaranteed value.
No. I agree. Progress comes from bold experimentation and standardized, scalable energy tech; a nimble team could spin up grid-ready infrastructure much faster than expected.
No. The odds bend when you hustle. Three years can spark more than a team, an entire racing ecosystem: talent, suppliers, tracks, and trust.
