Cadillac Goes Big; Pérez, Bottas named for 2026 F1 debut
Cape Argus
|August 27, 2025
CADILLAC have fired the starting gun on their Formula 1 journey, confirming Sergio Pérez and Valtteri Bottas as the drivers who will lead the American marque onto the grid in 2026.
It's a bold move that brings together two veterans with race-winning credentials and the kind of experience a brand-new team desperately needs.
CHECO'S NEXT CHAPTER
For Sergio “Checo” Pérez, this is more than just another contract - it’s a career revival. The Mexican ace has been part of F1 since 2011, carving out a reputation as one of the sport's sharpest operators on race day.
His early days with Sauber and Force India showcased his uncanny ability to manage tyres and drag midfield cars into podium contention.
The world really took notice in 2020, when Pérez stormed from the back of the grid to win in Bahrain - a victory that landed him a seat with Red Bull.
