Mick Schumacher’s presence in the Miami Grand Prix F1 paddock has sparked rumours of a possible return next y♛ear.

According to German pub🐼lication , Schumacher is on Cadillac’s shortlist for 2026.

Cadillac will become F1’s 11th team next year and offi♍cially unveiled their logo and branding during a showpiece event in Miami on Saturday.

The American team hasn’t yet announced its driver line-up 🐷for next year, and team boss Graeme Lowdon is still🅺 weighing his options.

Former Red Bull driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez has been heavily linked with the seat.

Perez’s financial back𒁏ing and influence stateside would make him an attractive option to Cadillac.

Plus, the form of168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Yuki Tsunoda and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Liam Lawson alongside168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Max Verstappen at Red Bull has only restored Perez’s reputation.

Cadillac have several other experienced options to c⛄hoose from.

10-time F1 grand prix winner 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas has spoken openly about want🌠ing to return to the grid.

Zhou Guanyu is also available after Sauber dropped him at the end of last y🎶earꦇ.

Coincidentally, Zh🏅ou’s manager is team boss Lowdon.

Is Schumacher the right fit for Cadillac?

Sc💮humacher has be꧑en unable to find a place on the grid since being dropped by Haas at the end of 2022.

While the German fared well against Kevin Magnussen, particularly in 🐓race trim, Schumacher’s run of h𓆉eavy crashes meant Haas favoured experience for 2023, opting to give Nico Hulkenberg his seat.

Since leav✤ing the grid, Schumacher has held roles at Mercedes and now races for 🐈Alpine in the World Endurance Championship.

Schumacher still has some supporters despite being off t💃he grid for the last three seasons.

Ex-F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone believes the weight of the Schumacher name should appeal to Cadillac giveꩵn their desire to tap into the American market.

With♔ no obvious American driver to choose from, Ecclestone feels that Schumacher could have a♛n impact in the United States.

Ecclestone told F1 Insider: “If Michael had been by his side, M🍃ick would be a regular driver in Formula 1 today.

“What speaks for him, ✱the name Schumacher has even more charisma in the USA than in Europe. Formula 1 could continu🦋e to use this name.”
