Cadillac's test driver, Colton Herta, will take part in the sixth Friday practice session at the Sao Paulo GP to gather the missing FIA superlicense point necessary to compete in the F1 series. Herta, who has been preparing for his F1 campaign through private testing, FP1 sessions, and a challenging F2 experience, requires 40 points to attain the required FIA superlicense.
Following their Mexico weekend, Cadillac penalized Carson Hocevar and Josh Berry for brake-checks on the Martinsville track. Despite the penalties, Cadillac remains committed to Herta's F1 aspirations, providing him with another FP1 session in Sergio Perez's car. Herta expressed excitement about driving the MAC-26 at the historic Interlagos circuit, stating it would be an "awesome experience."
Cadillac's Brazilian visit comes after a tough Mexico weekend, during which Valtteri Bottas suffered a suspension failure during the race.
