Ferrari set to supply new team with PU and gearboxes
Italian Formula One team Ferrari have announced a new partnership agreement with the Cadillac Formula One team, which will see Ferrari provide the team with power units and gearboxes from the 2026 season onwards. The Cadillac Formula One team, which is backed by General Motors, will be the newest team on the grid and will now no longer need a mandatory supply agreement. Cadillac is still awaiting its official entry from the governing body, the FIA.
Frédéric Vasseur, Team Principal Scuderia Ferrari HP, commented,
“It’s great to see the commitment of another American team, backed by one of the most highly respected marques in the motor industry, at a time when Formula 1 is increasing in popularity in the United States. We are delighted therefore that we will be supplying the team with our power unit and gearbox as the basis of this technical collaboration. It means we will continue to have two “customer teams” in the championship with all the benefits this brings in terms of technical development within Ferrari.”
Graeme Lowdon, Team Principal of Cadillac Formula 1 Team led by TWG Global and General Motors, added,
“We are thrilled to partner with Ferrari as the power unit and gearbox supplier for our Cadillac team, bringing together two remarkable legacies. Choosing the right power unit partner is crucial, and we trust in Ferrari’s passion, excellence and the exceptional capabilities of their people.”
