MODERATORS
Making a contract ahead of time was important to show Andretti has no yolo attitude about entering the competition.
Fair point. I suppose the lack of interest from Renault to renew the contract indicates they wouldn't be required to supply Andretti.
I wonder who they would end up going with if they do enter as a constructor.
"Renault, alias Alpine, does not want to get caught in the crossfire of a power struggle between the FIA and FOM."
They'll renew the deal once it's clear if Andretti enters or not. They want a customer. Having two fewer cars hurt their reliability.
