Cadillac F1 Team Boss Reveals Big Driver Names Contending for 2026 Seat
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Cadillac Formula One team principal Graeme Lowdon has revealed significant interest from drivers for racing full-time next year when the American outfit officially enters the F1 grid. 2026 also marks the year when the sport steps into a new era of regulations. Cadillac received the green light to enter F1 in March this year as the 11th team. However, the outfit had begun its preparations to enter the sport long ago, given the mountainous task of starting a new team from scratch. While Cadillac seems to be getting there in terms of hiring key resources and the development of its 2026 car, the team's driver lineup has yet to be finalized. Lowdon revealed the names of seven drivers with whom Cadillac has engaged. Cadillac F1 Team Principal Graeme Lowdon walks in the paddock during qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain at Silverstone Circuit on July 5, 2025 in Northampton, United Kingdom. Cadillac F1 Team Principal Graeme Lowdon walks in the paddock during qualifying ahead of the F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain at Silverstone Circuit on July 5, 2025 in Northampton, United Perez Lowdon confirmed ongoing talks with Sergio Perez, who has been away from F1 after Red Bull parted ways with him following the 2024 season. Perez recently confirmed that he wanted to return to F1 only if a project seemed interesting to him. Lowdon's confirmation could hint at Perez's return to the premier class of motorsport, especially given the extensive experience he brings with him to a new team like Cadillac. Colton Herta Andretti's IndyCar star Colton Herta is a young talent that Cadillac has expressed interest in. However, there remains one hindrance to his potential Cadillac signing. Herta's superlicence does not have enough points for an entry into F1. When Lowdon was asked if he was considering Herta, he said: "Yeah, but again, different drivers have got different attributes and positives and also restrictions as well. In Colton's case, it's the superlicence that's the issue, but he can certainly drive a race car." Mick Schumacher Former Haas driver Mick Schumacher last raced in F1 in 2022, before becoming a Mercedes reserve driver in 2023. He remained on the sidelines for a year before racing for Alpine's World Endurance Championship team last year. However, Schumacher has expressed his keen desire to return to F1 on several occasions. Speaking about the contact with the German driver, Lowdon said: "Yeah, we are talking to Mick." Valtteri Bottas Bottas became a Mercedes reserve driver after racing for Sauber until the end of the 2024 season. The Finnish driver brings a wealth of F1 experience to the table, given his successful full-time stint with Mercedes from 2017 to 2022 alongside Lewis Hamilton. Lowdon acknowledged talks with Bottas but revealed one trait in drivers he wouldn't prefer. He said: "Yes, I know Valtteri really well. "I think they [Schumacher and Bottas] have both proved a whole bunch of things. "Everyone wants to prove something else again. I never look at that as the biggest motivator. Our team is not there as a vehicle for someone to prove a point. "Our team is there to provide a position on the pitch, if you like, for someone to prove what they can do for sure. But it's not a vehicle to kind of show the world to prove a point or whatever. "Drivers are there to prove the best they possibly can for the team and they should be motivated for the team around them as well. I'm less keen on people who kind of want to prove a personal point." Felipe Drugovich, Fred Vesti, and Arvid Lindblad Lowdon isn't limiting his options to just experienced drivers. He also named three drivers from junior racing categories who have impressed him. He said: "There are a bunch of young [drivers]. There are some really good F2 drivers, Felipe Drugovich, Fred Vesti. The list kind of goes on. "Arvid [Lindblad] is a really good guy. He has done a good job. He has Red Bull [as his backer]."

Trump administration sanctions Mexico over air carrier trade pact
The Transportation Department has announced a series of actions against Mexico for violating a years-old bilateral air carrier trade pact. The department said Mexico has not been in compliance with the airline competition agreement since 2022 when it took back some slots for flights for U.S. air carriers at Benito Juarez International airport in Mexico City and forced U.S. cargo planes to shift their operations to other parts of the city. 'Since 2022, Mexico has altered the playing field significantly for airlines that reduce competition and allow prominent competitors to gain an unfair advantage in the U.S.-Mexico market,' a release from the Transportation Department said. 'The United States and Mexico have an air services agreement... that commits both parties to a liberalized operating environment for all has walked away from its commitments.' Mexico has said it rescinded the slots to make room for construction at the airport, but the work has yet to materialize three years later, the transportation department contended. 'By restricting slots and mandating that all-cargo operations move out of [Mexico City International Airport], Mexico has broken its promise, disrupted the market and left American businesses holding the bag for millions in increased costs,' the release continued. The 'America First' actions enacted by the Trump administration require Mexican airlines to file schedules with the transportation department for all of their U.S. operations, mandate prior DOT approval before operating any large passenger or cargo aircraft charter flights from the United States and addressing anti-competitive issues in the market. Mexico seized slots from U.S.-based carriers American Airlines, Delta Airlines and United Airlines, as well as from three Mexican airlines -- Aeromexico, Viva Aerobus and Volaris -- to make room for the construction. 'Despite repeated outreach from the Department, Mexico has not provided any information regarding when these slots would be returned or any major construction projects at MEX will ever materialize,' the release continued. Duffy added that the United States is also reviewing trade agreements with other countries to determine if they are being violated, including pacts with some European nations.

Critics said Trump would ruin America. Six months in, he's proving them wrong.
Halfway through 2025, I can't help but recall the bevy of lies that progressives and the mainstream media told me about Donald Trump before and after he won a second term as president. I was told Trump would be the end of American democracy, the beginning of American fascism, the ruin of our economy and the best thing ever to happen to Russian President Vladimir Putin. None of that has happened, and I don't know whether to be disappointed or elated. But I must ask: What happened? And why have things gone so right when they were supposed to be so wrong? Progressives have persistently forecast imminent economic doom since Trump was reelected in November. In April, the Associated Press reported: "President Donald Trump has panicked global financial markets, raised the risk of a recession and broken the political and economic alliances that made much of the world stable for business after World War II." That same month, Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, declared that "Donald Trump is ruining the economy on purpose." And The American Prospect, in an article headlined, "The Great Trump Crash?," predicted that tariffs would "mean an instant, near-total halt of trade between China and the U.S." None of those dire predictions proved to be true. The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq recently reached record highs. Employers added more jobs than expected last month. The inflation rate ticked higher in June, but remains far below the 40-year high that Americans suffered under during the Biden administration. Hicks: Trump's tax bill will crush the rural voters who chose him Progressives' scary predictions about international affairs also have proven to be false. Trump was supposed to be the green light Putin needed to pummel Ukraine into submission. Trump's America first stance also was supposed to embolden China and splinter NATO. In reality, Trump has been a peacemaker, pushing for meaningful ceasefires in conflicts from Gaza to Pakistan, Ukraine to Iran. Trump's efforts in the Middle East alone are worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. Trump set back Iran's development of nuclear weapons, then forged a ceasefire between Iran and Israel. Diplomatic efforts to broker a lasting peace in Gaza also continue. If there is to be a World War III, it doesn't appear imminent. Once again, progressives' claims about Trump were nothing but fearmongering. Probably the biggest lie the left has told about Trump is that his election would be an "extinction-level threat" for democracy. Six months into Trump's second term, I'm happy to report that democracy is still alive and well. Just look at recent headlines: New York Democrats exercised their right to vote for a socialist to run America's largest city. Millions of Americans marched in "No Kings" protests to criticize the president. Other protestors have taken to the streets to demonstrate against enforcement of our nation's immigration laws. Opinion: Trump's deportation flip-flop reveals America's dirty economic secret Despite liberals' oft-repeated fears, the evidence overwhelmingly points to a healthy democracy, where Americans vote for the candidates of their choice and raise their voices to call out politicians and policies they don't like. Trump isn't a king; he's a duly elected president chosen by a healthy plurality of voters. His election was democracy in action. It's not just that progressives' worst fears turned out to be far from reality. The left tried to gaslight Americans into believing they'd regret voting for Trump. The fearmongering on the left was wrong, then and now. And I won't let liberals forget it.
