REUTERS: Motor racing great Mario Andretti would love to see Italian carmaker Ferrari join the North American Indycar series as a chassis and engine supplier.
"It is clear that the rules should be changed, but I would like an all-Italian Dallara v Ferrari battle. The Cavallino would increase interest in the championship, but there is an obstacle in the rules.Andretti's role in IndyCar is now mostly ambassadorial but he remains a fixture on the circuit working with son Michael, also a former F1 and IndyCar driver who now operates numerous racing teams including IndyCar, Indy Lights and Formula E.
Formula One teams have agreed verbally to lower the 2021 budget cap from the US$175 million set in the regulations to US$145 million but some are pushing for further cuts to reflect the global financial crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Ferrari, which makes its own car and engines, has said hundreds of jobs would be at risk under a lower cap.
