Alfa Romeo would need to ally with a team in order to enter formula one, Ferrari and Fiat Chrysler president Sergio Marchionne said on Monday. Recently, Marchionne suggested that the fabled Italian carmaker, who powered F1's first world champion Giuseppe Farina to the inaugural title in 1950, could return to the pinnacle of motor racing.
And as Ferrari made its debut on the Milan stock exchange on Monday, he declared: "It (Alfa Romeo entering F1) is undoubtedly possible. "How that is done, we still have to see. It would be difficult for Alfa Romeo to return without the support of another team. First, we focus on the introduction of the new Giulia (road car). However, for an association with formula one, that would be ideal," Marchionne added.

Marchionne said that other manufacturers should also think about entering F1. "I think the Germans (BMW) were wrong to leave in 2008-2009. Personally, I encourage all the manufacturers to enter F1," he said. (GMM)

What can I say? Yes please, but I'm biased since I'm a big fan and I drive an Alfa Romeo. But it's already nice to see a big Alfa logo on the Ferrari cars :)
And I agree, leaving F1 was a bad move for BMW, but also for Toyota (remember Brawn). Would be good to see them again in F1, would also like to see the return of independent engine suppliers like Cosworth.
