Where’s Andretti gone? Why now? Can it actually be ready for 2026? We attempt to answer all the questions over the new Cadillac Formula 1 team
General Motors and Cadillac will debut a new Formula 1 team in 2026, severing ties with the Andretti name. An agreement among General Motors, Cadillac, and F1 is set to establish an 11th team. Earlier attempts to enter as ‘Andretti Cadillac’ failed, prompting a shift to a General Motors-led endeavor. The team will start as a customer team, transitioning to a full-fledged works team with a GM/Cadillac engine by the end of the decade. Although no longer bearing the Andretti name, Andretti Global’s foundational work remains essential to the project’s success.
