Cadillac F1’s Bold Hiring Push Shakes Up Paddock Dynamics

Cadillac F1 disrupts Formula 1 hiring trends with bold recruitment, targeting Haas and Aston Martin amid aggressive salary offers and team expansion.

Cadillac F1 arrives strong, and it is not being subtle
Cadillac F1 is wasting no time. The team is hiring daily and offering attractive salaries to lure top talent from the paddock.

Target: 600 employees by 2026
Backed by General Motors, the new team is growing fast. It already counts 330 employees and aims to double that number within two years.

Transfers making headlines
Cadillac recently hired Pete Crolla, former trackside operations director at Haas. A clear sign that no one is off-limits.

Haas and Aston Martin under pressure
Haas boss Ayao Komatsu acknowledges the threat. Cadillac is clearly targeting American teams with offers that are hard to turn down.

Aggressive but within the rules
Komatsu remains philosophical: “It’s part of the game.” Cadillac attracts, yes, but without crossing market lines. Just salaries few can match.

Aston Martin also in the crosshairs
Ongoing technical reshuffling at Aston Martin is drawing Cadillac’s attention. The team is using this moment to approach key engineers.

Strong names leading the project
Graeme Lowdon is heading the team. He is joined by familiar faces: Nick Chester and Pat Symonds, both former Renault engineers, bring solid expertise.
