Sergio Pérez has signed an extension keeping him with the American Cadillac Formula 1 team until at least 2029. The announcement on 28 October came before the Mexico City Grand Prix, where the Mexican driver is due to make his 300th start in front of home supporters. He joined the project before Cadillac entered the championship in 2026. The new agreement extends a partnership established for the team’s debut season.[1], [2]
Neither Pérez nor Cadillac has scored a point this season. Pérez brings six Grand Prix victories and experience with Sauber, McLaren, Force India, Racing Point and Red Bull to the new team. He described building a Formula 1 operation from scratch as work requiring time, sustained effort and patience. While welcoming the progress already made, he acknowledged that considerable work remained and said he was committed for the next three years.[1]
Cadillac chief executive Dan Towriss described creating a competitive team as a long-term undertaking. He said retaining Pérez’s talent and leadership gave the team continuity as it developed the foundations laid during its first year. Its stated goal is to move further up the grid. Pérez also thanked the personnel working at races and in the United States and United Kingdom, alongside the supporters who had backed the project from its beginning.[1]
