Yeah, skirting the sanctions on russia to supply them with mills for weapons manufacturing wasn't a great look either. Plus the fact that they are awful at F1. Would be nice to have an American team that I could actually cheer for

GM - via the Cadillac brand - is coming to F1 from next season, which is also a season in which there will be regulation changes to the cars themselves (i.e., everything to play for, everyone is starting from new, almost). With several US GPs, it's a good time to be a US F1 fan. As a Brit living a few miles from Woking, it's not a bad time for me, either... :)

That's true, and I do enjoy not having to watch the races live at 4am in my time zone. Also, the only reason GM is still around is because of crazy government bailouts. So I guess I can pretend Ive helped fund an F1 team with my tax dollars.
