American Carmakers Bet on F1: Ford is back, but is no stranger to motorsports FT. Scott Speed (host), A.J. Baime, Mark Rushbrook.
Earlier this year, Oracle Red Bull Racing and Scuderia AlphaTauri announced a powerplant partnership with Ford Performance, starting in 2026. Meanwhile, Andretti Global is teaming with GM/Cadillac to field an 11th F1 team. This episode of Ready for the Big Time: F1 will explore Ford’s rich history in the sport, what drove Ford’s support away, and why a return is so exciting. Then we’ll look at why Cadillac’s entry could be the final stroke that sheds their frumpy reputation.
Host Scott Speed discusses his connection with Ford Cosworth engines, and co-host Andrew Lawrence speaks with A.J. Baime, author of Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans; and speaks with Mark Rushbrook, global director at Ford Performance Motorsports, about the company’s exciting and timely return.
