Bottas: a disappointing return As expected from a team in its first year in Formula 1, Cadillac has not reached the points zone in any of the five races held so far, but among the two official drivers of the US team one is not particularly convincing: Valtteri Bottas. Unlike the Mexican Sergio Perez, the former Mercedes has been the author of more disappointing performances, to the point that his stay in Cadillac already seems to be in question. The Cadillac option According to what was reported by Sky Italia and BILD, the hypothesis of a contract split is not excluded, with the team promoting Colton Herta in his place. In IndyCar until last season, the American is now involved in the Formula 2 championship with Hitech (a team supported by Cadillac), and at the same time is a member of the team as test driver and reserve driver. 13th in China, Bottas did not perform better, almost always finishing behind Perez. Like the Mexican, the 36-year-old also returned to F1 this year after his absence in 2025, the year in which, after a 2024 championship that ended without any points in Sauber, he returned to Mercedes as third driver.
