According to information from FOX Sports, Colton Herta would be the chosen driver to represent the new Formula 1 team, Cadillac, where Sergio 'Checo' Pérez could also potentially be involved. For Herta to meet the necessary requirements to obtain the Formula 1 Super License, he will need to accumulate certain points in his IndyCar career.
The chances of 'Checo' Pérez returning to Formula 1 are increasing thanks to Cadillac's potential entry into the sport. Although Pérez had previously not confirmed his return to F1, the opportunity with Cadillac seems to be opening new doors for him. His experience with teams like Red Bull, Racing Point, and Force India makes him an attractive option for Cadillac.
Currently, Pérez is enjoying a break in his career and preparing for a possible return in 2026. Even though Cadillac's entry into F1 has not yet been fully formalized, the team's interest in having Pérez is evident. As a free agent for the 2025 season, Pérez could start collaborating with Cadillac this year.
The potential union between Sergio 'Checo' Pérez and Cadillac in Formula 1 has generated great interest among motorsport fans, especially in Mexico and Latin America. This combination would not only attract fans but could also bring economic benefits through sponsorships related to Pérez.
On the other hand, Cadillac has expressed its interest in having an American driver on its F1 team, adding an element of excitement over who could be Pérez's teammate in the team. Despite the excitement generated by the possibility of 'Checo' Pérez returning to F1, the official confirmation of Cadillac's participation in the championship is still awaited, which could mark a new chapter in the Mexican driver's career.
