IndyCar drivers having increased opportunities to get into F1 would be 'healthy for the sport', according to the former World Champion.
Mario Andretti: IndyCar deserves points increase in FIA’s Super Licence system1978 Formula 1 World Champion Mario Andretti believes it’s time the FIA looked more closely at the points weighting given to IndyCar.
The seven-time IndyCar Grand Prix winner went on to say: “I just feel that IndyCar is underrepresented in the super licence points structure. But, from their point of view, with the current points structure, I get it. And I don’t want to come in as ‘an exception’.” “I think Colton’s situation – he expressed himself very clearly as to why he made the decisions he made,” Andretti told PlanetF1 in an exclusive interview.
“From where I’m coming from here, I feel that maybe they need to revise how much attention it could pay even to give IndyCar some ability to earn points for their super licence, just like you do in Formula 2, and Formula 3. Certainly, Andretti believes Herta’s feelings towards F1 won’t have soured as a result of the stringent bureaucracy that has put the kybosh on a 2023 switch.
