This pivotal moment isn’t just about fitting into a race seat; it symbolizes the dawn of a new era as Cadillac revs its engines and prepares to join the Formula 1 grid.
The Cadillac F1 project, once a vision under the guidance of former racing legend Michael Andretti, has transformed dramatically since General Motors seized control. This strategic shift has propelled the initiative from concept to reality, culminating in its recent approval to compete in the high-octane world of Formula 1.

This is a proud moment in my career as it marks the beginning of a new chapter back on the grid with a team that’s starting its journey in the sport.” His words echo the sentiment of a driver ready to harness his extensive experience to propel the team forward in its formative stages.
As the clock ticks down to the first pre-season test at the end of January, the pressure is on. Cadillac’s relentless pursuit of perfection is evident as they finalize their innovative car design, and Bottas is keenly aware of the stakes. “Seeing everything coming together for the first time as a brand-new team is special and makes you realise the momentum of the project,” he noted with palpable excitement.
The importance of meticulous preparation cannot be overstated, and Bottas is determined to ensure that every detail aligns perfectly. “It’s important to get the preparation right as these moments really are the first steps to getting us ready for the first test,” he added, highlighting the critical nature of this phase.
With Bottas at the forefront, fans can hardly contain their excitement for the upcoming season. “I can’t wait to get the season started and go racing once again,” he declared, igniting a fire of anticipation among motorsport enthusiasts worldwide.
This venture isn’t just about racing; it’s about redefining what’s possible in Formula 1. As Cadillac gears up to make its mark in the highly competitive landscape of F1, all eyes will be on Bottas and his team to see if they can transform their ambitious vision into a thrilling reality.
