Graeme Lowdon has confirmed Colton Herta is under consideration for a seat with the Cadillac team for the F1 2026 season. Herta is a leading light of the IndyCar series, with the American driver at the forefront of Andretti’s line-up where he has hauled himself into contention for a seat when Cadillac arrives in F1 next year.

F1 was once Colton Herta's goal; now he's not sure. But the young Andretti Global IndyCar drive also needs to qualify.

IndyCar star Colton Herta says he is “not sure” that he wants to join Cadillac’s Formula 1 programme in 2026 despite being seriously considered for a grand prix seat. Cadillac has made no secret of its desire to have an American driver on the grid when it joins F1 next year, with Andretti IndyCar driver Herta believed to be its favourite contender.
