As Cadillac prepares for its highly anticipated entry into Formula 1, the team’s leadership has emphasized that driver selection will be based purely on merit. With speculation mounting over who will secure a seat in their debut lineup, Cadillac’s boss has assured that only the most deserving drivers will be chosen.

The American manufacturer, in partnership with Andretti, has been pushing for an F1 entry in recent years and is now closer than ever to joining the grid. With their formal inclusion in the sport expected in the coming seasons, discussions have intensified regarding potential drivers. However, Cadillac’s leadership has dismissed any notion of prioritizing nationality or commercial appeal over performance.

“We are fully committed to building a competitive team, and that starts with selecting drivers based on talent, experience, and their ability to help us succeed,” the Cadillac boss stated. “There will be no compromises we will pick our lineup on merit.”

This statement comes amid speculation that Cadillac may opt for at least one American driver to strengthen their brand’s presence in the U.S. market. Names like IndyCar star Colton Herta and Williams driver Logan Sargeant have been linked to potential seats. However, F1 veterans and young European talents could also be in contention, depending on the team’s long-term strategy.

Despite uncertainties about their official F1 entry date, Cadillac and Andretti are continuing to prepare behind the scenes. Their efforts have included securing technical partnerships and laying the groundwork for a competitive debut.

With the 2025 and 2026 driver markets expected to be highly competitive, Cadillac’s approach to recruitment will be closely watched. Whether they bring in established names or rising stars, their commitment to a merit-based selection process suggests they aim to be a serious contender from the outset.
