Cadillac and General Motors have agreed a deal in principle to join the Formula 1 grid in 2026.
Cadillac/General Motors are reportedly set to take advantage of a little-known loophole in a bid to get a big head start before they enter Formula 1 in 2026.
Cooper wrote on social media: "Worth noting that the Andretti/Cadillac aero guys have been busy for months working in Toyota's Cologne tunnel on a car for the 2026 regs - which current teams can't do until Jan 1 2025. A useful head start..."Cadillac/GM can start work on their 2026 cars already because they are not yet an official F1 team, meaning the sport's regulations do not limit them.
"I am fully supportive of the efforts made by the FIA, Formula 1, GM and the team to maintain dialogue and work towards this outcome of an agreement in principle to progress this application to bring a GM/Cadillac branded team on the grid for the 2026 FIA Formula One World Championship. All parties, including the FIA, will continue to work together to ensure the process progresses smoothly.
