Chase Carey plans to bin F1's 'infamous' Concorde Agreement

All efforts by F1's new owner will be constrained by the current agreement for the next three years, but Carey is keen to replace it with a system that is less contentious.

"We have the infamous document called the Concorde Agreement, which is this agreement that comes up every six to eight years - it comes up in 2020 - which defines the financial arrangements with teams," said Carey.

"Our goal is to create much more of a long-term partnership, not a partnership that sort of has a point in time that you go out and renegotiate the next eight-year partnership, that there's a continuum."

Carey said that always having a looming deadline for the next agreement creates problems as the various parties fight to get the best deal for themselves, which causes uncertainty and makes longer-term planning difficult.

"It creates gamesmanship, if you've got that point in time, you have people posturing and positioning: 'what can I get out of it?'" he said.

"What I'd like to have is everybody's priority being continually looking three years down the road, not looking at a specific point in time.

"I think they all welcome getting there, but we've got to drive it."

He remains confident that teams will fall in line with his vision and work for the common good when they realise that everyone will ultimately benefit if F1 expands.

But Carey accepts it will not be easy to change the existing culture.

"Really what we're doing is we're saying we're working as partners that compete on the track, but share a vision of where we're going as a sport, and share the benefits of doing that together," he said.

"It's a sport that historically was a little bit every man for himself, and how do you game each other and the like, and that leads to one plus one is one and a half.

"If you could pull together and figure out what is the right path forward for everybody, you make one plus one is three.

"That's our goal, to change the culture of this sport, which has had some very unique aspects to it, and create a new culture.

"And I feel good about it so far, there's a real welcomeness to wanting to do that.

"There's no question changing a culture that's been embedded for that long will take some time, but I think it's a transforming opportunity to really build a longer term, healthier relationship that benefits us both."
