The words of Mohammed Ben Sulayem

Mohammed Ben Sulayem, president of Fia, has clear ideas about the future of Formula 1. "Circuits should have enough pits and space for twelve teams-I think what is excessive is not the number of teams, but the number of races. We need moreù teams and fewer GP".

“You can’t force Andretti and General Motors to buy another team just because the owners don’t want to sell,” he added to Reuters. “I won’t name names, but they asked me to go and convince General Motors to buy. That is not è my job. I wasn’t elected for this, I don’t play the middleman. The regulations allow for 12 teams. Some teams said the paddock would be crowded. Really? Forò we have a Hollywood team among us".
