Not saying I agree with him. I think competition wise, etc it makes sense to add teams. I think from the current teams selfish point of view, not allowing teams makes sense.

But, to your point, I guess I don't get the it goes both ways comment. Andretti nor GM did anything to increase popularity in US. It got to where it is in the US without GM. And having them likely won't matter one bit for sustaining that popularity. So what are they bringing to the table? That was Gunther's point, we aren't just going to let any team in now that they all want to be here since it's popular. We want to see what they bring.

This is like saying you wont allow someone to buy Apple stock because they didnt invest in the 90's.

You just got to pay more to play -- there's always ways to consider past team's investments. To gatekeep because of this reason is pretty silly.

You say it's silly but I feel like we're saying the same thing. The bids to get in aren't public right? Maybe Andretti was trying to get in at the Apple stock value of the 90's but GM came in at current value….
