Cadillac to Join Formula 1 Grid as Eleventh Team in 2026

Posted : 26 November 2024

American automaker Cadillac is set to join the Formula One grid as the sport's eleventh team in 2026, following an agreement in principle between Formula 1 and General Motors (GM), Cadillac’s parent company.

 

The announcement highlights the culmination of ongoing discussions throughout 2024, ensuring the operational readiness and commitment of GM and its partners at TWG Global to establish the Cadillac team in the highly competitive F1 paddock.

Formula 1 confirmed that Cadillac's entry would initially involve using Ferrari-powered engines, with GM planning to transition into an engine supplier role by 2028.

 

The decision comes after earlier setbacks for a bid led by Andretti Autosport, owned by Michael Andretti, son of 1978 F1 champion Mario Andretti. GM had previously supported the Andretti proposal, but that collaboration is no longer part of Cadillac’s independent push into the sport.

 

This milestone marks a significant step for General Motors, which recently registered with the FIA as a Formula One engine manufacturer.

 

 While the Andretti name is no longer associated with the effort, the Cadillac team’s entry promises to bring a fresh dynamic to Formula 1, reflecting GM’s ambition to strengthen its global motorsport presence.
