Bottas says Cadillac’s F1 facilities are stronger than Mercedes’

Valtteri Bottas said Cadillac’s Formula 1 facilities are better than Mercedes’ when asked by the Financial Times to compare them with the Brackley-based team. Bottas answered: "I would say so."

The comment is notable because Bottas raced for Mercedes from 2017 to 2021, a period in which he took all 10 of his grand prix wins. The comparison also comes during Cadillac’s first F1 season, in which the team has yet to score a point.

Multiple outlets highlighted Bottas’ assessment as a significant endorsement of Cadillac’s infrastructure as the team continues to build for its future in Formula 1.
