What do they have to offer? Unlike others, they don’t have any alternative path to offer to juniors. Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull, Cadillac, even Toyota can offer their juniors GT3, WEC hypercar, Formula E, etc. to offer should the path to F1 not materialize.

Audi cancelled everything. They left Formula E, hypercar, GT3 racing, even Dakar. Porsche and Lamborghini have their own driver programs. Their not taking Audi academy drivers.
