Is Sergio Perez set to join Cadillac in the upcoming F1 season? While rumors swirl, the team remains tight-lipped about their driver lineup for 2026. Amidst a glitzy brand launch event in Miami over the Grand Prix weekend, speculation was rife that Cadillac would unveil at least one driver for the next season. However, sources suggest that no announcements regarding the driver roster will be made just yet.
The excitement was palpable as fans awaited news at the launch event in Miami Beach on May 3rd. Despite Perez’s presence in Miami and rumors of his imminent signing, insiders reveal that no final decisions have been reached. Reports claiming the unveiling of the team’s future livery have also been dismissed as premature.
The Mexican driver’s potential move to Cadillac comes after his departure from Red Bull in 2024. Negotiations are said to be underway for a three-year deal, with competition from other teams vying for his signature. Despite a lackluster season with Red Bull, Perez’s track record as a consistent midfield performer makes him an attractive prospect for Cadillac as they aim to strengthen their lineup.
Team boss Graeme Lowdon emphasized the importance of experience in driver selection, citing a mix of ability, capability, and future potential as key factors. While Perez’s signing with Cadillac seems probable, the team is keeping fans on the edge of their seats with suspense surrounding their driver choices for the upcoming season. Stay tuned for more updates as the F1 drama unfolds.
