Default ford in F1

When is Ford going to get back into F1, of
Any opinion on Ford in racing today, we or at least one would
think that Ford engines are as good as or better then the
comps, but Ford does not seem to win many races in NASCAR
only John Force in funny Car seems to win
Any thoughts...
Best

BMW got out of F1 because the shareholders of the company thought it was not worth it. Since Ford almost went belly up I cannot imagine them getting much more involved than what they are doing now.
"Win on Sunday, sell on Monday" still works to some degree. That's why they are invloved in NASCAR and drag racing. But there is more: they have cars in WRC rally racing, Australian Super V8, British Touring Cars. There are a bunch more that i don't have on top of my head.
