By Balazs Szabo on

Following the season-closing Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Ferrari and Cadillac have announced an agreement that will see Formula One’s 11th team to use the all-new power units of the Maranello-based company.

General Motors and TWG Global have recently confirmed that they have reached an agreement in principle with Formula 1 to bring a Cadillac team to the series in 2026.

In addition, the US car giant is also launching an F1 power unit that will put the Cadillac Formula 1 Team on the path to being a “full works” team — building its own F1 vehicles and power units — by the end of the decade.

Cadillac would be the first new team to join F1 since 2016 and the eleventh team on the grid.

Ahead of the season-closing Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, General Motors also confirmed that Graeme Lowdon will join the fray as team principal for the new Cadillac F1 team. The Briton is also involved in management for China’s first and only F1 driver Zhou Guanyu.

Ferrari and Cadillac have now announced an agreement that will see Formula One’s 11th team to use the all-new power units of the Maranello-based company.

Commenting on the announcement of its new partnership, Ferrari noted: ““Ferrari today announces a multi-year agreement starting from 2026 with Andretti Formula Racing LLC, regarding the supply of power unit and gearbox to the racing team led by TWG Global and General Motors, subject to Andretti Formula Racing LLC receiving written confirmation from the FIA – F1 that its entry to the 2026 FIA Formula One Championship has been accepted and approved,” read the brief statement from Ferrari.
