Andretti, General Motors Announce F1 Entry Bid Plans Under Cadillac Brand

Andretti Global and General Motors announced their partnership on Thursday as well as their intent to pursue a Formula One bid under the Cadillac brand, making it an all-American team at this time. 

The news comes in wake of FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem tweeting he “asked my FIA team to look at launching an Expressions of Interest process for prospective new teams” for F1. This is the first step to extending the grid beyond the current 10 teams. 

The plan is for Andretti Cadillac to be based out of the United States but will have a support facility in the U.K. According to the announcement, the team plans to submit the Expression of Interest when the process is opened and has its eyes set on having at least one American driver, if Andretti Cadillac is selected.
