I could see Andretti suceeding in F1. Michael Andretti has shown he's a good team boss, yeah that's in IndyCar. But with the Cadillac backing I think money is a non-issue, with the budget cap on top. I think they'd do okay with a good design team. Just need to practice so they can consistently get those 2.5s pit stops perfected and they're sorted. Great video, Tommo! 😁

[@TommoOnYoutube]

Cheers Cammy 🙌

[@arwyss]

That’s why the other teams don’t want them. Remember, Andretti had more money lined up to buy Sauber than what Audi ended up paying to buy the team. The paddock wants American money, but not American drivers, teams, or influence.

I was Born and raised in Fishers. Believe me when i say the whole community wants this. Racing is the culture in indy and this team would have absurd support.

[@ChasingLamely]

It's honestly a relief to hear you mention Newgarden as a driver. I've been saying he needs an F1 seat for *years* and was beginning to think I was the only one who thought he deserved a seat. Helluva driver. I'd rate him as being on at least Danny Ricc's level as a driver.

[@TommoOnYoutube]

I hope his time hasn't passed.

[@ChasingLamely]

@@TommoOnKZbin I'm surprised Zac Brown didn't give him a seat for next year; I know he's got Piastri, and Piastri is a hench prospect, but I can't help feeling Zac missed an opportunity to play an absolute blinder there. And it's not like he doesn't know how good he is. That said, JN is on Penske money. And Penske money is notoriously disgusting.

[@caseymiller3540]

Great video! I agree totally about waiting to get the bids from all parties interested before accepting Andretti but my heart still begs for the Andretti family to be involved in F1, especially as the American audience is finally discovering F1. Also, I think Danny Ric could be a candidate for the experienced driver in an Andretti team. He’s a big fan of the USA, he’s a great personality that brings a happy energy to a team, fans love him which could attract even more attention in the growing US market, and of course he has multiple race win experience despite the last few years results.

[@noellemly]

the race suit mockup you made looks really good !! giving me a jimmie johnson kind of vibe

[@E90_Alpine_White]

I think Kyle Kirkwood or David Malukas would be possibilities for the American driver for sure. Kirkwood won the Indy lights title in 2021 and is taking Alex Rossi’s seat this year in the #27 car at Andretti Autosport. Malukas finished P2 in the 2021 Indy lights season, and in 2022 he had a great rookie season with a podium at Gateway and almost won rookie of the year.

[@michaeldesrosier1068]

Seriously, Newgarden is the real deal. Dude is clinical in his approach, has both the raw pace and consistency needed, is well accustomed to ground effect aero, and is media savvy and polished enough to survive the media storm that comes with f1.

[@TommoOnYoutube]

His consistency is absolutely barbaric.

[@bw8818]

someone who is american and has superlicense points? DANIEL RICCIARDO. there isnt someone more american than him who is also f1.

[@TommoOnYoutube]

He might aswell be, give him citizenship already

[@Hakumai_o7]

Livery and overalls both look great imo. I love simple black and white liveries, and with the little splashes of color here and there it really brings the whole thing together. I would say tho that perhaps the Cadillac logo should be in full color, at least on the nose to bring attention to it

[@ForeverF1]

If Andretti do enter F1 in 2024 one of their drivers has to be Ricciardo as he’s also popular in the US

[@jez_77]

I think Andretti joining in 2024 is probably the best and possibly the last chance for Ricciardo to be back in F1. They have the money to meet his kinda ridiculous demands and Im pretty sure they would love to have a driver with proven abilities in F1 (although its still a risk after his performance in McLaren) but more importantly he has a huge fanbase all around the world among current F1 community, so by teaming him up with someone like Newgarden they would gain tons of fans not only from US but also from Europe, Asia, Australia. It would be a fantastic move in terms of marketing, they would instantly gain a lot of attention worldwide

[@cachinerof1]

Alex Rossi raced(past tense) he’s now with Arrow McLaren SP in IndyCar. also Andretti field 4 full time IndyCars and a 5th car for the Indy 500

[@theindubitable]

[@robbailey995]

Stylistically, one thing Cadillac were known for was their white diamond pearl paint with chrome accents. Might not work in F1 because of weight, but it's a good look

[@benoitchamot7260]

Ha! With all these yellow sponsor logos I was expecting a Jordan-style yellow livery… But I guess the silver base is more on brand. Great and thorough video!

[@DrAmithBhat]

Brad Pitt and Will Smith driving for them with Christian Bale as the reserve driver ( considering he’s got WEC experience ) and Tommy Lee Jones as team principal.

[@fin-ed6oj]

I desperately want 2 new teams in F1. 4 more seats goes someway to solving the lack of opportunities for drivers graduating from F2. Guys like Shwartzman, Pourchaire, Schumacher, Doohan, Drugovich, Newgarden, Herta, Palou, etc. all deserve a shot ASAP!

[@fin-ed6oj]

Or even Daniel Ricciardo to drive for Andretti... with his 'American' links. Maybe that's what all this mystic holding out for 2024 stuff is all about

[@danielrichardson637]

Would love to see Danny Ric drive for Andretti. I think it’s a great potential partnership. Good experience to ground the team in the competition and plenty of avenues into other competitions when he does walk away from F1 (hopefully those days aren’t done already). Great video though and love how the livery manages to combine a lot of the colours of the logo but also manages not to be too busy. Looks great

[@ashooaway]

If there's a livery I would want on a poster this is one, what a fantastic job the best one you've done yet. I don't know if you want to do this Tommo but a brand I've thought off that could easily stump an F1 team would be Apple, with the rumors of their electric car in the production line and attempting to buyout McLaren circa 2016

[@kg0173]

[@MrJordanSDean]

DHL would be a good sponsor with them being based in the US - the team could do DHL activations around transporting the team further than others and take the sustainability twist to it too.

[@owenoseroff]

My dream driver line up for Andretti would be Logan Sergent or Josef Newgarden and Danny Ric, so we get the American and and Experienced driver as well and Daniel would fit right in. Also as I was writing this comment I realized that if that happened driver numbers would be #2 and #3. Also Andretti are currently developing a huge Facility for all their racing programs including the F1 bid. It’s gonna be in Indianapolis. And as for the engine they look like they would use a Cadillac branded Renault and then in 2026 Cadillac will build their own engine.

[@derosiflo6524]

The livery with more Gold would be slapping like hell, like more than it is already

[@joshk1026]

I might be biased because the Andretti HQ is in my hometown but seeing Andretti in Formula 1 would be a welcome sight. We often encourage American influence into the sport but Haas just cant deliver on pure scale, but Andretti is the biggest name in American motorsport (aside from Penske). This could truly bring American motorsport fans across the international divide and could be a more comfortable platform for sponsors like Microsoft, Weathertech, and NAPA than Haas is.

[@MattGoelz]

[@johnlcq]

You absolutely NEED to get the Cadillac script logo on there. Especially on the back wing.

[@regularguyrunning174]

the livery pops!

[@jackmonaghan8477]

I think the Renault deal would only be until 2026 when the new regs come in and then Andretti would switch to a GM-produced engine with a Cadillac badge. As for the drivers, I think they could either nab Sergio Perez if he leaves Red Bull early with the second seat being either Doohan or Alpine's other junior Victor Martins (depending on who finishes higher in F2 this year). And other Andretti sponsors would include Avalanche (their present FE title sponsor), Powertrap (who sponsor Devlin DeFrancesco's entry) and Konica on account of their IMSA team-up with Wayne Taylor Racing. Also, there is no way Newgarden will go to Andretti F1 since Penske would pretty much block the move if he continues to deliver in Indy with them.

[@mgers75]

I think Michael would be a good Team Principle but I think he'll be more of a Zack Braun CEO type overseeing the Company and will have to hire someone to be the Team Principle. I think an advantage of having the main factory in Indianapolis is there are some amazing Engineering Schools in that immediate area Like Purdue, Michigan. I think a mixture of fresh American engineering perspectives and techniques mixed with some established British technical talent could really pay dividends.

[@MC---]

I use to do graphic design for automotive ads including Cadillac. Cadillac is super strict on brand guidelines, I don't think they would have any of the yellow, blue, and red on the car. They don't scream luxury. I would bet the suits would be mostly black, silver/grey, white and maybe a very minimal amount of yellow. They wouldn't use all three of their accent colors.

[@nateye2450]

I don’t think there are really any connections here, but I’d like to see Callum Illot get an f1 seat. He was second in f2 in 2020, he’s been in Indycar for a while, and he’s probably work well alongside herta or newgarden

I’m happy with Andretti X GM joining the grid. Then hopefully a 12th team in another manufacturer. After that, I’d like to see a manufacturer replace Haas because its evident that Gene Haas and Guenther Steiner aren’t really there when it comes to the F1 mindset. I’d also like to see a manufacturer join with Williams (like Alfa with Sauber) so we don’t lose the Williams name but they also have the budget to not be dead last. Then maybe another manufacturer replacing alphatauri. I’d also like to see 2-3 more engine manufacturers on the grid once there’s 12 teams. Would be very interesting.

One thing I would change tho looking at the grid of colors, I would make the yellow and silver the more apparent colors on the car. It could compliment the Gainbridge and NAPA logo pretty well. While the silver/grey could pull out the Andretti and Cadillac logo. Other than that I think it looks amazing, great job mate 🤙🏽

[@chasers23]

I think you missed a potential driver pair they could move- all depends on how serious andretti wants to stay with Formula E- but Jake Dennis, even though he's british- is a very very promising prospect for the andretti team. He's been a red bull dev driver for a few years, and he's currently looking excellent in Formula E and has a great relationship with Andretti- and because the seasons overlap, it may seem illogical to pull your golden goose from one sport and place him in another, but formula 1 is the pinnacle of open wheel racing. Pairing Herta with Ricciardo (this isn't nuts) or Rossi, or dennis with Rossi, would give them the best bet to develop a racer and learn from someone with experience. Dennis would just need to come in 3rd or higher in E this season to qualify for a superlicense- and he may try to sign in F1 anyway. For the last few years, Andretti has been signing F1 talent new and old to his teams in open wheel series. Bottom line, there is no absence of engineers, drivers, and possibilities to put together a dream team of sorts and have a leg up on some of the other upstart teams we've seen. I personally am very excited at the prospect of any of those drivers being in F1 and andretti coming back to the sport is a dream come true tbh.
