Andretti will definitely discuss Sauber buyout from Austin

The name of Michael Andretti keeps coming back in the paddock as the buyer of Sauber, or more precisely of Islero Investments. This entity is the one that brings together Sauber AG, Sauber Engineering and Sauber Aerodynamic.

Andretti has already been mentioned in possible investments with Haas F1 and Williams, but that’s good on Sauber that his attention would be focused. Frédéric Vasseur explained at the time that these were only paddock rumors.

Nevertheless, in the paddock today, it is said that the offer would be on the table again. Andretti Acquisitions Corporation, a company founded this year to invest, could become Sauber’s majority investor.

Frédéric Vasseur, when questioned on this subject, wished to remain cautious. The team director assures us that he is not aware of the negotiations, which seems less firm than his previous answer.

“I can not say anything because honestly it is not in my strings” said the team manager. “I am the CEO and the manager of the team, and this kind of discussion is not for me, it would be for the shareholders. We have had so many rumors and the like, that ‘the question should be put to the shareholders of the company. “

According to some sources, the next discussions between Islero Investments and Andretti Acquistions Corporation should be held in Austin in two weeks, for the United States Grand Prix.

The possible arrival of Andretti at the helm of Sauber could obviously revive the transfer market for this team in 2023 or 2024, since the debate on the arrival of an American driver should resurface. Colton Herta, who drives for Andretti in IndyCar, could for example have a steering wheel.

Nevertheless, the near future of the team is written with Alfa Romeo, which will be involved year after year while waiting to see the future of the team in F1 and the car market. The team is expected to announce its second driver for 2022 in the coming days.
