There will be a new face in Formula One next season in Cadillac and they have addressed rumours if they will be spearheaded by a familiar face in the paddock.
The US-based car manufacturer will become the 11th team on the grid in 2026 and unveiled their driver line-up for the forthcoming campaign.
However, they also confirmed whether or not former Red Bull team principal Christian Horner will be part of their plans or not.
The 51-year-old was abruptly fired following the British Grand Prix last month with no reason given for his termination.
The dismissal ended a 20-year stint that included eight F1 drivers' titles and recent turmoil that followed the team on and off the track.
He has been linked with a return to the sport via Cadillac, but speaking on Tuesday their CEO Dan Towriss ruled out this possibility.

He has been linked with a move there but the US-based team are happy with Graeme Lowdon
There have been no talks with Christian Horner. No plans to do that,' Towriss said. 'I'd like to officially shut down that rumour.'
He then praised Graeme Lowdon, Cadillac's current team principal, stating: 'Our support backing is 100 per cent in Graeme Lowdon.'
