Formula 1 newcomer Cadillac, according to media reports, has chosen two old hands as the first driver duo. Apparently one seems to be far away from a timely announcement.
As the “GPBlog” portal wants to have experienced, Sergio Perez has not yet signed a contract at Cadillac.
The portal “Planet F1” recently reported to “Several Sources” that the Mexican and the US racing team have reached an agreement. An official proclamation of the deal is to take place at the Italy Grand Prix in Monza, which takes place on the first weekend in September.
However, those reports are said to have provided “sigh” with the Cadillac bosses, according to “GPBlog”. You know that a lot can happen until the Monza race. Nevertheless, the Formula 1 portal also says that a change from the 35-year-old to Cadillac is still in the room.
Mick Schumacher back into Formula 1 as a reserve pilot?
You are a little further at Valtteri Bottas. Already in mid -July it was said that Cadillac also had an agreement with the Finn. However, this has not yet been confirmed. Nevertheless, the current Mercedes reserve driver explained a short time later that a deal with the US racing team was “very close”.

According to “GPBlog”, there would be no signs of doubting the 35-year-old. However, it is unclear when the papers are signed and the deal is announced.
By adding Cadillac to the Grid for the new season of Formula 1, the rumor mill had once again been significantly heated up. Numerous pilots, including the German ex-formula 1 driver Mick Schumacher, were on the list among the Americans. Several conversations were also held with Schumacher.
As the magazine “Auto, Motor und Sport” suggested, Schumacher could slip the role as a F1 test and reserve driver at Cadillac and take a double role next to his career as a WEC pilot.
