It is possible that we will learn more in a while about the famous 12th team dear to MBS which would bring the field to 24 single-seaters!

Andretti didn't wait for the Renault F1 sale, but the 24th contender is going to have a cheap treat

Shine wrongly, an obligatory member of the Mazepins... it smells of probity! If Renault doesn't sell very quickly, there will be defections from the legal department... So Toleman-Benetton-Renault-Lotus-Renault...and soon what name for Enston? Ted Toleman hadn't imagined all this...

An arrival in F1 thanks to "Il Magnifico" Flavio, prelude to a long-term resale ofAlpine F1 - and therefore from Enstone finally rid of Viry-Châtillon - to a new entrant in F1? It would not be surprising because he was involved in the Hitech F1 application file for 2026 with a wealthy oligarch from Central Asia. A potential “Horner encore”!!
