It isn't really an investment. Lawrence mostly thinks of this gig as Lance's weekly allowance. He also enjoys being in the paddock and networking. So it's a win-win. If you're a billionaire and the kid wants to race, you will fund it. Even if he loses the money, he doesn't give a shit.

The reason his dad bought the team was that no team would hire Lance. Because he's a sh8t driver. He's a passionate driver, but he just can't drive. I hope the Stroll's leave F1 as quickly as possible and make room for a team that has actual talent for drivers.

Lance is an ok driver. He's not too bad, neither is he good. The problem is that his teammate is Fernando Alonso and obviously he'll look bad compared to Alonso. Nando brings in 50-70 more points per season than what the car is actually deserving of.

@@AficionadoF1 I think the bias is the part where the video treats Logan like an angel and Williams like the devil. F1 teams aren't a charity. Some of the bottom teams don't even max out on the budget cap, and you're expecting them to just forgive and forget millions in crashes that could've gone to development? Especially from a driver that otherwise isn't doing that well, even when he doesn't crash? Those bottom teams are fighting for their lives in F1 too.

Americans think they can solve everything in court. But the truth they don't want to hear is, Andretti really has nothing to offer to F1. And you don't earn places for legal reasons -you need to perform. By the way, the reason there are only 20 cars in modern F1 is they have become bigger because of the hybrid systems and driver' safety, and many tracks are already stretched as they are -adding cars would make qualifying nearly impossible. Besides, when there were 26 cars or more in the 1980s and 90s, most of the extras were thoroughly uncompetitive and ended up being weeded off in prequalifying.

not being able to commercialize the sport in USA would be a huge hit, theyd have to scramble to replace 3 races with 5-6 months before the next season(the bids are there, but takes vetting, time and money)... and the doj can certainly pressure other national bodies to support them by leaning on other businesses, assets, interests...

@@AficionadoF1 <<I think you're being a little naïve here.>> Actually, I worked in an industry regulated by the FTC for 25 years. We had to attend annual legal reviews about the regulations. We had a handbook we were expected to comply with and be familiar with regarding what we could and could not discuss with competitors and vendors we might share in common. We also had to sign an anti-trust agreement every year and it was kept by our legal department. You might be naïve in assuming I'm 'being a little naïve here' WRT anti-trust regulations.

Andretti has not beeen refused entry to F1. Andretti has been refuse entry in 2026 and it is already now too late for then anyway. Drops a big bomshell. I think Liberty and F1 who dont forget are based in Paris and not the US will not lose any sleep over it. Andretti have been told they can enter in 2028 with the GM engine. So no case to answer. To many the proposed GM engine was a sprat to catch a mackerla to get Andretti in. Some think it will never happen. I cant see the lack of an Andretti car in the US will make the slightest difference as the sport is already very popular without Andretti and with Andretti will he bring much more interest perhaps , perhps not. Before anyone talks about Haaas they are on the acendancy this year once they had a good driver. F1 is the best and there is always a place for the best in any sport.
