Does this mean Andretti is actually happening? He must have more knowledge than most about the situation between F1 and Andrettiโ€ฆ

Still trying to force their way in, this is just another move. I'm guessing Pat Symonds was already on his way out at 70 yo, this way he gets a final consultancy contract doing minimal work, so win-win really.

Yep they are paying him for his name, contacts, and reputation.
