F1: Look, Andretti, it's just... We don't think you're a serious enough candidate to join. Unless you pay extra of course.

Andretti: Here's a commitment from GM to join us and bring in substantial money to the sport.

F1: Okay, but we're worried that you don't have the facilities or the staff.

Andretti: Here's our new facility in Silverstone, with another one to come - all fully staffed.

F1: Right, right. But... Uhm...

Andretti: We just signed Pat Symonds.

F1: Okay, wait...

Andretti: Here's our friend, the US Congress.

F1:,,,
