My apologies for posting about relevant matter to this thread
Joe Saward's latest green notebook includes mention that he's heard from a good source that GM has bought the IP to the Renault 2026 PU. Maybe someone from GM was reading this thread? |

Well, we can always jump back off topic at any time!
Quote:
Also in his article, he calls out that the team is not for sale now. Which aligns with comments Luca de Meo has said. Joe says that after 2026 however it might be sold to the highest bidder. And I think that also makes sense given 2026 will be under the new Concorde agreement which should see the high value locked in (maybe even increased) with high entry costs for a new team. See my earlier comments (post from the 10th) about de Meo treating the team as an investment vs. a racing team. Unrelated to Alpine, it is interesting that there is the potential that Sauber/Audi could be bought. That there seems to remain consistent doubt as to commitment by VW. He spins a tail of sale to unnamed Qatari entity due to Qatari having 17% ownership in VW, but I think that is a stretch. Porsche family owns controlling interest in VW and I expect if they want to be in F1 they will be in F1. And any potential sale will be to appropriate bidder regardless if it is related to Qatari instrest in VW or not. Richard |
