What? There is a huge financial incentive to do well. 2023 had a prize pot of $2.2 billion to be split amongst the points holders.
Haas just fired their Team Principal for that reason. They dumped Schumacher after 2022 for the same reason.
Teams need to win to secure sponsorships and get a cut of the prize money.
Andretti-Cadillac was rejected, and this is 100% percent factual, because they did not attend a required face-to-face with the FOM because the scheduling email went to spam.
Andretti confirmed this a few days ago.
2025 development was also cited, but a face-to-face meeting would've probably assuaged those fears.
It's in the article:
The meeting was to discuss the rejection and if they couldn't be bothered to reach out twice to confirm, they didnt want it to happen. Absolute joke if you believe its only bc of a missed email.
I apply for a job at a company that isn't really hiring. I've got some bona fides (my dad worked there back in the day) so they send me a message to come interview. I ghost them. Do they chase me down or just say "fuck it, they're not serious and we're full anyway"?
Or both sides are telling the same lie about a weird fuckup for reasons.
Just go read the article.
Lol, ok your right its just like you finding a job. Oh wait, it's not.
