Corresponding discussions are being held with the current BMW team, Andretti Autosport, as a BMW spokesman confirmed to 'Motorsport.com': "We are discussing options for season eight (the 2022/23 season; editor's note) The option is to supply Andretti with BMW drives.

For electric drive, we have a technology cycle between production and motorsport achieved from which both sides have benefited. "

"We have now almost exhausted this development potential in terms of technology and know-how. With the fifth generation of the BMW electric drivetrain, we will continue to focus on mass production," the spokesman said in addition to the official BMW announcement on Wednesday.
