Cadillac leaves 2027 F1 driver line-up unresolved
Cadillac has not finalised its Formula 1 driver plans for 2027, with recent comments from Marcin Budkowski adding to uncertainty around the team’s line-up. Reports say reserve driver Colton Herta is among those in contention, while questions remain over the futures of Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas.
Multiple reports indicate Cadillac’s 2027 Formula 1 driver line-up is still not settled. Comments from Cadillac boss Marcin Budkowski ahead of the United States Grand Prix, and his refusal to give a clear answer on the subject, prompted fresh speculation about the team’s plans.
That uncertainty has focused attention on the futures of Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas. Motorsport.com reported that both drivers are on multi-year deals understood to be structured as one-plus-one arrangements, with the second season optional.
The Race reported that reserve driver Colton Herta is among the names in contention and could potentially replace Bottas for 2027. Across the coverage, the consistent point is that Cadillac has left the door open to changes rather than confirming a fixed line-up.
