Valtteri Bottas incurred a drive-through penalty for speeding in the pit lane during the Miami Grand Prix after an issue with the pit limiter button on his steering wheel. The problem arose because Cadillac does not manufacture its own steering wheels and is awaiting an updated version from its supplier. Despite the setback, the team recorded progress with its first set of in-season upgrades.
Former Formula 1 world champion Damon Hill has labeled as 'ridiculous' the FIA's decision to enforce a grid penalty on Valtteri Bottas from a 2024 incident for his 2026 debut with Cadillac. The penalty, stemming from a collision in Abu Dhabi, carries over because Bottas did not race in 2025. This will see the Finn start five places lower at the Australian Grand Prix, despite a recent rule change that prevents such carryovers in the future.
