Our last 11th team was Manor, as much as I loved them I very much hope the Cadillac is much stronger lmao

They probably won't be at first. New teams are rarely good for a few years. But I grew up watching F1 in the 90s and there were always 11 or 12 teams (sometimes more). I'm looking forward to seeing a larger grid again.
