Cadillac F1 unveils Texas-inspired livery for US Grand Prix

Cadillac F1 Team has revealed a special one-off livery for the upcoming United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin. The design celebrates the traditions of the American West, featuring intricate patterns inspired by denim stitching, vintage cowboy shirts, and fine saddlery scrollwork.

The project was initiated by Vincent Traina, a design manager at General Motors Performance, Motorsports and Accessories, and developed through a collaboration between GM Design in Detroit and the team’s technical center in the United Kingdom. Despite the complex aesthetic, the design was engineered to comply with strict Formula 1 aerodynamic regulations.

In addition to the custom car appearance, drivers Sergio Pérez and Valtteri Bottas are expected to wear matching Western-style racing suits. This marks the third special livery for the team during the 2026 season, following previous custom designs introduced in Miami and Silverstone. Colton Herta is also scheduled to participate in the first free practice session, driving the MAC-26 to provide technical data for the team's engineers.
