There’s something the average driver can relate to! I guess all the Mustang owners made their purchases because of how well it is as a family car

Ford says- "Our commitment to be Net Zero Carbon by 2030 and to introduce sustainable fuels in the F1 cars from 2026 is also an important reason for their decision to enter F1.

"We believe that our sport provides the opportunity and reach unlike any other and we cannot wait for the Ford logo to be racing round F1's iconic circuits from 2026."

Unfortunately, the new Mustangs I see on the road are SUV's!

And BTW, If you want to see what Liberty has done to F1, read some of the comments on the site where the link I posted exists. Mostly old school Brits that are really upset about what has happened to F1 since the "new" hybrid era. (since it raining here in Orlando and no racing to watch).

Can you post the article that says they aren't sponsoring drag racing anymore? I can't find it. I don't read into things until it happens.
Everyone said they weren't paying contingency anymore, and Myself and several people I know have gotten checks the last couple years from Ford.
If you do post the article where it says that my apology.
