Sergio Perez’s chances of returning to Formula 1 are looking promising as a team chief mentioned he is being considered for a seat at Cadillac, the 11th team on the grid next year. Mario Andretti, Cadillac’s advisor, stated that Perez is part of a three-man shortlist being evaluated for the position. He emphasized that the team is carefully assessing all available options before making a decision. Despite limited high-profile names, the team is confident they will select the best candidate for the job. There is speculation about other potential drivers like Valtteri Bottas and Daniel Ricciardo, but the final lineup remains uncertain. Graeme Lowdon, the team principal, aims to potentially include at least one American driver, with Colton Herta being a strong contender.
