Finnish Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas has a confirmed contract with Cadillac running through the 2027 season, according to reports. The agreement comes as Cadillac's Formula 1 program continues to develop ahead of its anticipated entry into the championship.
Bottas was photographed driving the Cadillac MAC-26 during the 2026 Austrian Grand Prix weekend, signaling his involvement with the American manufacturer's motorsport project. Despite the existing multi-year deal, sources indicate Cadillac's garage representatives have continued discussions regarding the arrangement.
The 2026 Austrian Grand Prix appearance marked a visible step in Cadillac's Formula 1 preparation, with Bottas serving as a development driver for the MAC-26 chassis. The Finnish driver, a 10-time Grand Prix winner, brings extensive experience from his stints with Williams, Mercedes, and Alfa Romeo/Sauber.
Cadillac's Formula 1 entry, backed by General Motors, is part of the Andretti Global partnership that received FIA approval for a potential 11th team. The manufacturer's long-term commitment to Bottas through 2027 suggests stability in their driver lineup planning as they work toward grid entry.
