What requirements are not met?
- Then the DOJ will charge them with anti trust violations.
  
  Is Liberty Media registered in the US?
- Apparently it's mostly because Greg Maffei doesn't want Michael Andretti back in F1.
I wonder if "Williams would be sad because they would get less money" can hold up in court
So we are meant to believe a dysfunctional and combative US government is going to somehow swoop in to solve some F1 drama? Yeah I don't think so.
Ah yes. The American way. Win, or die in the courts.
- The rejection is BS and they know it. I hope they concede before this goes to court
