Sergio Perez: Signs with Cadillac

Cadillac have signed Grand Prix winners Perez and Valtteri Bottas to be their drivers when the team joins the Formula 1 grid for the first time in 2026.

Analysis:

What has been anticipated for a couple weeks was made official by the new F1 team Tuesday. Perez will join the American squad and backed by General Motors. The new team opted for experience over youth with their driver signings and Perez has plenty of it. With 281 Formula 1 starts and six grand prix victories, Cadillac couldn't ask for a more seasoned driver to head up its launch and joining the grid in 2026.
