I also get annoyed when they say "but only if its a good team, we dont want another team running off the pace". That means nothing. Look at Williams, Hass Aston etc.... some years they run mid field (and how many WDC WCC have williams won) then they either find or lose their mojo a while and the order changes.
Very few teams start out near the front (Braun were an established team renamed) It might take 3 years or so to find their way.. a few years of embarrassment then suddenly winning everything
Look at 888 history in Australian Supercars. They were the butt of jokes for years.
So yeh a new team thats well off the pace is a possibility.... or one of the current teams could make a howling dog car one year and be way off the pace.
Thats motorsport
