They aren’t letting that put them off for the time being though, as they continue to work hard towards a 2028 entry.

An entry alongside works manufacturer Cadillac as engine supplier would go a long way towards adding value to their prospective bid when it comes to applying to become an 11th team again.

Speaking to The Associated Press, Michael Andretti shared a few words about his team’s F1 hopes.

"We're in the process of doing things, so we're still feeling very good about what we're doing," he said.

Since their rejection, Andretti has adopted the phrase that its F1 project "continues on pace", with it also being reported by the above source that they recently ‘crash tested’ a front wing.

The state of Red Bull’s domination suggests that an 11th team may be welcome sooner rather than later, with the sport in need of an injection of excitement.
