German outlet Auto Motor und Sport conducted an interview with Mario Illien himself. Relative late in part 2 of the interview he was asked about involvement with the 2026 engines and he replied that there were multiple inquiries but nothing advanced enough to talk in detail.

In a bit of fun speculation I'd say there are three somewhat likely candidates:

  • Red Bull – they approached Ilmor to improve the Renault engine when they were Renault's customer
  • Honda – they sold their UK operations to Red Bull and already worked with Honda on the last-gen IndyCar engine
  • Cadillac/GM – The current Chevrolet Indy V6 has been co-developed by Ilmor.

I like Alfa as a car manufacturer, sad to see them leave.

So sad to see the Alfa Romeo PR department leave. They contributed so much...

I guess with war criminals Aramco and Petronas being title sponsors for other teams, it could have been worse.

It's not but the rules say nothing against occasional posts about other forms of motor racing either.

Michael Schmidt from Auto, Motor und Sport spoke with Michael Andretti:

"The whole thing is actually no longer an Andretti gig at all, it's a factory operation by GM. And in fact, all the people being recruited, even in the chassis area, are now already being recruited by General Motors and no longer by Andretti."

And the deal also included the rebranding of the Renault PU as Cadillac. Andretti wanted to sell this as bringing a new constructor to the sport.

That's not true. They stated towards the press that GM will be involved in technical aspects without going into details but it's not really that hard to guess with parts those are:

GM has the facilities such as including several wind tunnels, aerodynamicists, engineers, and so on. At the very least the GM facilities will be used, potentially some personell as well.

Alfa Romeo is not involved in Sauber's technical aspects at all. GM's involvement will definitively be more than that.

I thought the regulations required any additional teams to use Renault engines since they have no customers?

Making a contract ahead of time was important to show Andretti has no yolo attitude about entering the competition.

There’s no such thing in business. All that means is that it would be extremely costly to back out at this point.

Yes, I know and he also said that. I don't have time and energy to translate the entire thing.

The current cars are also able to stay within the track limits, the problem is more that from the seating position the lines are hard to see and apparently the drivers rely to feeling the kerb vibrations to a large degree.

Michael Schmidt from AMS talked to Andreas Seidl. He said investments ongoing. Schmidt thinks that the source of those rumors may be some in the Audi hierarchy who may not like the move but the ball is rolling, "Audi past the point of no return" and can't backtrack now.

To get the ball rolling, Andretti had already signed a preliminary contract with Renault years ago. But that expired in March 2023. And at the moment, the French are showing no great desire to resume negotiations on a continuation. Renault, alias Alpine, does not want to get caught in the crossfire of a power struggle between the FIA and FOM.

They claim that they have two different sources for that.

Dann müsstest du ihn Schweizer oder so nennen, denn er hat ja die geographische Einordnung verkackt.

Signal literally exists. Free.

Signal has fewer features than non-premium Telegram. Both are open source, neither can be used with alternative servers (unlike Matrix).
