Cadillac's Bold Move: Entering F1 with GM in 2026
General Motors' Cadillac brand is set to join Formula 1 as the 11th team in 2026, marking a significant moment for American racing. Initially rejected, GM's entry was facilitated by sidelining Andretti Global and taking full control of the project, committing to building and supplying its own engines. This move aligns with F1's criteria for new teams and mirrors Audi's approach with Sauber. Cadillac's entry is expected to boost the sport's appeal in the U.S., despite initial challenges in competitiveness.
