曾执掌印度力量、阿斯顿·马丁和阿尔派的奥马尔·萨夫诺尔（Otmar Szafnauer）透露，他对重返一级方程式仍持开放态度，不过他表示，未来若重返围场，可能不会以车队领队的身份。
萨夫诺尔曾在银石车队效力十余年，历经印度力量和赛点时代，之后离开阿斯顿·马丁出任阿尔派车队领队。他在High Performance 比赛播客节目中谈到了自己的未来打算。
"它确实满足了很多，"这位62岁的人谈到这个播客时说。"但我怀念的是一级方程式的竞争性。我不怀念的是出差旅行和其他一些事情。
"但如果我能为改进一支车队或组建一支车队提供价值……但必须是在合适的层面上，而且我必须能增加价值，不一定是担任车队领队，因为我已经经历过了。
"而且现在看起来，车队领队更多是由前比赛工程师担任的。
他补充道："对我来说，有些比赛工程师——不是所有人——恕我直言，他们拥有的技能类型与我认为一个成功的车队领队所需要的有所不同。

在谈到Martin Whitmarsh出任集团CEO后他从阿斯顿·马丁离任的经历时，他警告不要使用分散的领导架构。
"我当时既是CEO又是车队领队。他进来时担任的是集团CEO，" Szafnauer说。"几周之内，他就接管了我大部分的职责，大约80%。他说，'你可以在赛道上做那20%的事情'，我心想，一个教会容不下两位教皇。"
自2023年比利时大奖赛后离开阿尔派以来，Szafnauer已与联合主持人Jake Humphrey和Rob Smedley一起参与了High Performance 比赛播客。他还成为了Van Amersfoort 比赛的CEO，并推出了EventR应用程序。

Otmar Szafnauer opens door to F1 comeback but hints at different role
Otmar Szafnauer remains open to a Formula 1 comeback
Former Force India, Aston Martin and Alpine boss Otmar Szafnauer has revealed he remains open to a Formula 1 comeback, though he says any potential return to the paddock might not be in a team principal role.
Szafnauer, who spent over a decade leading the Silverstone outfit through its Force India and Racing Point eras before leaving Aston Martin to become team principal at Alpine, discussed his future on the High Performance Racing podcast.
"It does fulfil a lot," the 62-year-old said of the podcast. "But what I miss is the competitive nature of Formula 1. What I don't miss is the travel and some of the other stuff.
"But if I can be of value to improve a team or build a team... But it's got to be at the right level, and I've got to add value, not necessarily team principal because I've been there, done that.
"And it seems like nowadays the team principals are more ex-race engineers."
He added: "And for me, some of the race engineers, not all of them, with all due respect, have different types of skills than what I think is required for a successful team principal."

Reflecting on his exit from Aston Martin following the arrival of Martin Whitmarsh as group CEO, he warned against diluted leadership structures.
"I was CEO and team principal. He came in as group CEO," Szafnauer said. "And within weeks he took most of my responsibilities, about 80% of them. He said, 'You can do this 20% stuff at the track,' and I'm thinking you can't have two popes."
Since his exit from Alpine after the 2023 Belgian Grand Prix, Szafnauer has joined co-hosts Jake Humphrey and Rob Smedley on the High Performance Racing podcast. He has also become CEO of Van Amersfoort Racing and launched the EventR app.
