Basically, what would F1 teams look like if they were specifically associated with a country, and in order to compete with them you either have to have that nationality or have familial descent from that area (depending on citizenship laws for that country)?
- Ferrari: Italy
- TP: Andrea Stella (Italy)
- Drivers: no other Italian drivers apart from Kimi Antonelli
- Kimi Antonelli (Italy)
- Charles Leclerc (no Monagesque teams, but he's already a current team member, and this was the geographically closest place to put him as all spots for France were taken)
- VCARB: Currently registered to Austria, but was Italy originally
- TP: Flavio Briatore (not exactly a TP, but he was the only other TP-adjacent role who is Italian, and I had to save Toto for Red Bull)
- Drivers: No other current Austrian or Italian drivers
- Oscar Piastri (no Australian teams, but his family was from Italy originally)
- Isack Hadjar (all French spots were taken, I had no idea where else to put him, was a former team member)
