It looks like Colton Herta is pretty much toast as far as the FIA are concerned. It's ridiculous that so many in the F1 field are (and have been) marginally-talented ride-buyers and Herta is being excluded. He doesn't have any money to speak of, he's being sought only for his driving talent. I think if it were up to F1 alone, he'd be in for sure because they see the benefit of having an American driver. But the FIA could care less and don't want to give Indycar any international standing.
