Cadillac reveal the truth after claims that Sergio Perez has put pen to paper
C꧙adillac team principal grilled about announcing F1 driver line-up

Reports that 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez has already signed a deal to drive for Cadillac have been shot down by the te🤡am.
Cadillac, backed by General Motors, are set to become the 11th team on the Formula 1 grid from 2026 onw♔ards, and will later become their own power 🍷unit supplier.
💟The addition of two extra race seats has turned heads in the paddock, particularly for those in desperate need of a drive.
Perez, who was axed by Red Bull after a disappointing 2024, has no F1 drive this year but has been heavily linked to joining the new projꦏect.
US-based team Cadillac enjoyed their launch event on Saꦑturday at the F1 Miami Grand Prix.
It was rife with rumours that they would 💛announce their driver line-up, a♋nd that it would include Perez.
Have Cadillac make an F1 driver signing yet?
But team principal Graeme Lowdon shook his head when asked by The Athletic if the team had signed any driver yet.
Lowdon added: “The reality is that we’ve got 🗹lots of parallel tracks that all need to come together for the first race in 2026, and yes, of course, selecting the dജrivers is part of that.
“But we’re in kind of in an interesting situation, timiﷺng wise, because we’re out with synchronization with the other teams.
“We haven’t got drivers sat th▨ere saying, ‘Well, I might go to this team’.
“Every (other) seat is ♋full. We’ve got two and it tur𒐪ns out everybody wants to drive a Cadillac.
“That’s the onౠe thing that I have learned. My phone has become very busy.
“And so, t🌠o some extent, we’re looking at everything we need to do.
“One of the key things we need to do is build the🉐 car for the drivers to a🅘ctually race.”
Lowdon admitted th�ꦡ�ere are between six and 10 drivers on Cadillac’s radar for 2026.
They have been strongly rumoured t🧔o signing an America☂n driver, given they are a US team.
IndyCar driver Colton Herta or Formula 2 talent Zak Crawford𓂃 has therefore cropped up in conversation.
Lowdon said: “We want to hire drivers on merit, but we a♛ssess them on lots of different things and we’re in a good position — where we can take our time a little bit to do that.”
