NASCAR News: Michael Andretti still interested in NASCAR

Michael Andretti, while still trying to get a team in F1, said he is also interested in expanding into NASCAR but believes his path there is likely partnering with an existing team.

He did the same thing to enter IMSA sports car racing by merging with Wayne Taylor Racing, which Andretti said would eventually move its operations into the Andretti shop under construction in Indiana.

He said entering NASCAR falls behind the F1 project in terms of organizational priorities.

Should Andretti find a team to merge with, the most likely current candidate is Spire Motorsports, which has heavy sponsorship from Gainbridge — a company owned by Andretti Global co-owner Dan Towriss.  Associated Press
