Eric Warren, General Motors Motorsport’s executive director of competition, has revealed that he and Andretti are “going full steam ahead” to design a F1 car ahead of 2025. Andretti Global announced last year that it would enter F1, but there were voices pointing out the lack of added value to F1 from the current F1 grid.
In January, an alliance with GM was announced, and Cadillac joined the tender as an OEM, successfully increasing added value. The FIA launched an expression of interest process shortly following the Andretti-Cadillac partnership was announced, with “five or more teams” revealed by president Mohamed bin Sulayem, with a final decision on July 7. It is expected to arrive at the end of the month. But even though a F1 entry has yet to be confirmed, American F1 team Andretti-Cadillac is gearing up for the opportunity. “We put a lot of effort into that process, but the difficult part is trying to race in the 2025 season, so we’ve been working hard with Andretti on the design of the 2025 car.” Warren told NBC Sports. “I’ve been working on it because it’s a waste of time.” “Actually, we were just responding to a question from the FIA and the FIA will make a decision on July 15th. So we’re really doing our best in the process and just having as much discussion as possible.It’s pretty formal in terms of requests for information and responses.” Executive Director of Motorsport Competition, General Motors) The new power unit rules, due to be introduced in 2026, will see Ferrari, Alpine (Renault), Mercedes and Red Bull Ford join forces with six OEMs to compete. It will be. When asked why GM decided the time was right for the F1 project, Warren said, “From a business perspective, given the growth of F1 and the number of people who are paying attention to it, and what we’re building the Cadillac brand, it’s a natural progression. It is,” he claimed. “Many of the Cadillac officials are sports people and knowledgeable regarding the sport. They also have knowledge regarding F1. “I was very excited because I didn’t expect to actually see it, but it’s all regarding timing and Andretti Cadillac. “It’s all regarding the relationship with the team. It all came together.”
