The Cadillac Formula 1 team created a buzz during the Miami Grand Prix weekend by hosting a high-profile launch event on Saturday evening. The American outfit, preparing for its official debut in the 2026 season, used the occasion to generate excitement among fans and the media. While many were hoping for major announcements—especially regarding the team’s future driver lineup—Cadillac opted instead to build anticipation with a cinematic teaser video. The clip gave viewers a glimpse into the brand’s visual identity, featuring hints of a blue-and-white theme that could be used in their team apparel, and potentially in the car’s livery, though no definitive designs were revealed.
The launch event drew considerable attention, both from fans attending in person and from those watching online. Many had speculated that Cadillac would use this high-profile opportunity to announce at least one of its drivers for 2026. However, the team chose to keep that information under wraps for now. Dan Towriss, CEO of TWG Motorsports, which is partnering with General Motors and Cadillac on the F1 venture, addressed the delay in naming drivers during interviews with Motorsport.com and other media outlets.
Towriss emphasized that Cadillac is in no rush to finalize its driver lineup. According to him, the selection process is complex and demands thorough consideration. He acknowledged that the pool of potential candidates includes several well-known names already circulating in rumors, but he also pointed out that much of the speculation is premature. “I get a kick out of waking up and reading that we’re supposedly in the final stages of negotiation,” he said, suggesting that the team is not nearly as close to a decision as some reports might imply.
Although the lack of a driver announcement left some fans disappointed, their enthusiasm remained high. Supporters gathered outside the event venue, passionately chanting in favor of one driver in particular: “Get Checo. Get Checo!” The chant referred to popular Mexican driver Sergio “Checo” Pérez, currently racing for Red Bull Racing. While there has been no official indication from Cadillac about pursuing Pérez, the strong public support shows the kind of influence fan sentiment might have on the team’s eventual decisions.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the driver lineup, the teaser video managed to keep anticipation alive. Though brief and mysterious, the visual hints in the clip—especially the blue-and-white theme—suggest Cadillac is carefully crafting a distinct identity as it gears up for its debut. The full look of the team, including the car and gear designs, is still under wraps, but the launch served its purpose in building momentum. With 2026 still some time away, Cadillac is playing the long game, focusing on strategic decisions while feeding fan curiosity bit by bit.
