Dutch journalists report that significant changes are on the horizon for Formula 1 leadership.

Notably, Stefano Domenicali, the current CEO of the championship, is expected to step down and take on a similar role... in MotoGP.

These shifts, along with Greg Maffei’s departure from Liberty Media at the end of the year, are reportedly tied to the recent victory of Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential election and the Republican Party’s success overall.

It’s worth noting that Republican support has been a key factor for Mario Andretti in his efforts to secure a spot for Andretti in Formula 1. Maffei and Domenicali were previously identified as the main obstacles to Andretti’s entry into the championship.

In related news, Andretti has ramped up recruitment efforts this week, actively headhunting employees from other F1 teams.

At the same time, Mario Andretti teased some major announcements about the future of the team.
