Cadillac Formula 1 Team Completes Its First Laps On The Track

  • On January 16, 2026, the Cadillac Formula 1 Team completed its first on-track laps at Silverstone Circuit, with Sergio 'Checo' Perez running the initial laps during the promotional shakedown.
  • As a limited filming shakedown, the session gathered footage and helped verify systems while resolving morning issues under filming day rules, Graeme Lowdon said.
  • Visually, the car ran entirely in black to conceal its final look, with the definitive 2026 Cadillac Formula 1 Team livery set for a February 8 reveal during the Super Bowl.
  • The General Motors-backed Cadillac entry expands the grid to 11 teams in 2026 and will field Valtteri Bottas, driver, alongside Sergio 'Checo' Perez, driver, for its debut season.
  • Attention now turns to the Barcelona shakedown from 26-30 January as Cadillac will use Ferrari engines through 2028 while its own engine is scheduled to debut in 2029.
