Cadillac sack team principal Lowdon, Budkowski takes charge

Cadillac have sacked team principal Graeme Lowdon just ahead of their Formula 1 debut in 2026. Marcin Budkowski steps in as his replacement. Cadillac are calling it a "planned leadership transition", though letting the boss go this close to the first season reads as anything but routine. Budkowski brings previous F1 experience from his time working on the technical and sporting side of the sport. Lowdon's exit leaves Cadillac regrouping quickly as they build toward their entry.
