Six months earlier than their first race, the brand new Cadillac Formulation 1 Workforce is already transferring quick. The drivers have been signed, the automotive is being developed on each side of the Atlantic Ocean, and engineers are working simulations to organize for Grand Prix racing.
Main Cadillac to the Formulation 1 grid is Workforce Principal Graeme Lowdon, who is aware of the best way to launch a brand-new workforce. He did it in 2010 with Virgin Racing, which raced behind the grid and was graced by the expertise of the late Jules Bianchi.
And on this week’s Past The Grid podcast, Graeme tells pod host Tom Clarkson how his expertise led to a job with Cadillac, how the workforce gained its place in F1, and the unbelievable preparation work occurring because the clock ticks in the direction of the brand new workforce’s debut on the 2026 Australian Grand Prix.
He explains why Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez are the right drivers for the workforce, and why he admires Cadillac reserve driver Colton Herta for swapping IndyCar for a shot at racing in F1.
