Grosjean bowed out of F1 at the end o🐽f the 2020 season, bringing to an end a fiꦕve-year stint with Haas.

The Frenchman’s career ended in dramatic circumstances with his fireball crash at the 2020 Bܫahrain Grand Prix forcing him to miss the final two races of the♛ season.

• Why has Romain Grosjean’🗹s ‘dirty’ F1 reputation resurfaced in IndyCar?

Since leaving F1, Grosjean has enjoyeඣd moderate success in IndyCar in America, with three podium finishes in h🧜is rookie year.

Grosjean currently drives for And♋retti Autosport in IndyCar, with the group looking to enter F1 in 2026.

While Grosjean will be 39 by the time the 2026 kicks off, he’d be open to a return t♎o F1, potentially with Andretti, if they were guaranteed to be fighting at the front of the field.

"One thing I learned last year is to never say never,” he told GQ. “I told my wife I would never live in the U.S. and I would never race in a U.S. series and I would never do the Indy 500, and I've done the three of them. So I think it's just: You neꦫver know what the future is li🦋ke. 

“Now, I enjoy being in IndyCar. I enjoy being able♔ to do Lamborghini IMSA for the endurance races. It's the right balance for me. 

“For sure, F1 stays the pinnacle of ꦺmotorsport. So yes, if it was a team to win, yes. For sure, Andretti would have a lot of work if they make it F1, just the way H🎶aas was. 

“Right now I would say I prefer to stay in I♋ndyCar, but again, you never k⛦now. When things are done and concrete and in front of you, sometimes your mind changes."

Is Grosjean a realistic option for Andretti?

Given Grosjean’s age and time away from F1, it’s unlikely he’d be conside✅red as an op🍃tion for Andretti should their bid to enter the sport get accepted.

Outside that, it’s likely Andre🌊tti will have better options to choose from than Grosjean, with🌟 more recent F1 experience.
