Sergio Perez is officially poised to return to the Formula One grid, marking the start of his sixteenth season since his 2011 debut with Sauber. The buzz in the F1 paddock this week circles around Perez’s highly anticipated comeback, with coverage from thejudge13.com and F1-Fansite both confirming Checo’s intent to reclaim his spot under the Grand Prix lights. Notably, speculation about his destination is over, as Perez is now closely linked with Cadillac F1 for the impending 2026 regulations era, a move that even Max Verstappen recently praised during a media scrum, mentioning his confidence in Perez’s potential to thrive with a new team. The fresh backing and Cadillac hype suggest this may prove a biographical turning point, especially as industry heavyweights like Mario Andretti urge the team to take their time finalizing the driver lineup for maximum impact.
Perez’s name has also swirled in the drama-laden social media ether. Threads and Formula 1 fan spaces are dissecting the latest spat between Verstappen and Perez’s camp after Verstappen’s historic “Impossible Lap” at Monza, where Jos Verstappen, Max’s father, reportedly called Checo’s father an idiot in a public outburst, fueling ongoing narratives about Red Bull’s contentious second seat—a position Perez knows all too well. Still, Checo’s relations with Verstappen appear cooperative, at least on the surface, as Max openly supports his Cadillac move and wishes him well for the future.
On the business front, whispers continue about Mexican billionaire backers supporting Perez’s transition, aiming to leverage his star power as the new face of Cadillac in their Formula One expansion. Industry insiders like Dan Towriss and Mario Andretti remain noncommittal on contract details, but coverage from F1-Fansite consistently positions Perez as the top name on their shortlist.
Another notable mention came from RacingNews365, where Nico Rosberg revisited the Red Bull “second driver curse” in light of Perez’s fluctuating fortunes, linking his legacy to the continued struggles of whoever fills that seat opposite Verstappen.
As for public appearances, Perez has laid low on live circuits this weekend, emerging mainly via official team communications and driver reaction posts, shy of dramatic press conferences but never absent from F1’s social feeds. He’s trending gently upwards as public nostalgia for his aggressive, never-say-die race craft heats up ahead of 2026.
