Racing Bulls Team Principal Laurent Mekies says the arrival of Cadillac in 2026 will make Formula 1 “the battle of giants”.
F1 announced Cadillac’s agreement to join the F1 grid as an 11th team in 2026. Cadillac will start as a Ferrari customer before introducing its own engine in 2028. F1 is now a battleground for big-name corporations, with Cadillac’s entry adding to the competition of car manufacturers. Cadillac will be one of six OEM entries in 2028, alongside other major brands like Audi, Red Bull, and Ferrari. Discussions about a commercial agreement with FOM and the new Concorde Agreement’s anti-dilution fee are ongoing, with teams aiming for a higher fee due to the sport’s increased value.
