Sometimes, Formula 1 needs a hint of acidity to cut through its cloying elements, like lemon sorbet or raspberry coulis.
With Cadillac joining the grid in 2026, there is anticipation, despite recent information shortages.
While we know they’ll use Ferrari powertrains and have a base at Silverstone, key details like drivers, livery, and sponsors remain a mystery.
The road ahead for Cadillac in F1 is long and full of potential pitfalls, but learning from history is crucial.
To succeed, Cadillac must attract strong drivers, like successful teams of the past – Sauber, Stewart, BAR, and Lotus Racing.
It’s essential for Cadillac to tread carefully, avoid overconfidence, and learn from both the successes and failures of new F1 teams in the past 35 years.
