That's NBC's Indycar broadcast team's Twitter, not Indycar themselves, replying.

Nnnooooo! Didn't they listen to the *make it happen noises*?!?

It would be interesting to know how serious Indycar actually thought they were about it behind the scenes.

Maybe the solitary make it happen noises vote didnt make enough noise? Or lost in translation. ( :shrugs shoulders: )

As for how serious Indycar thought they were, we know how seriously the official broadcaster for Indycar took it....
But dont worry, there will be another Ferrari to Indycar rumour of some sort next time they dont do well in F1 / disagree on a ruling / get caught cheating.

Maybe start a Dallara to F1 rumour. Oh hang on a sec..... Haas on the phone.....

Ferrari to IndyCar was wishful thinking from the very beginning.
Bring back the sheep.
