Cadillac Formula 1 Team, the only American team on the F1 grid, has revealed it will run a special livery during the British Grand Prix. This event takes place over Fourth of July weekend.
The Cadillac entries will have a red, white, and blue livery that takes elements from the flag. This livery will have red and white stripes, as well as a blue section with stars.

"Marking the moment in full color," the team wrote on X. "With this year's British Grand Prix taking place over Fourth of July weekend, we're paying tribute to our American roots."
The cars will not be the only displays of American roots. The helmets and team kits will also have the red, white, and blue during the same weekend that Americans celebrate 250 years of declaring independence from Great Britain.
"The 4th of July weekend is a moment for us to show our continued pride in representing the United States on the global stage of F1," said Dan Towriss, CEO of Cadillac Formula 1 Team Holdings.
"We want to use it as an opportunity to allow new communities to discover the sport and share our passion."
The America-themed F1 cars will hit the track first on Friday, July 3, for practice and sprint qualifying. They will then compete on the Silverstone Circuit on Saturday, July 4, with a sprint race and qualifying. The British Grand Prix will then happen on Sunday, July 5, at 10 a.m. ET.
This season on the grid marks the first for Cadillac Formula 1 Team. The two-car team featuring Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas has competed in eight Grands Prix and three sprint races.
Bottas has four DNFs due to issues with the car, but he also holds the team's best finish thus far. He ended the Chinese Grand Prix in 13th place. Perez has finished all but two Grands Prix. His best finish is 14th in the Grand Prix of Barcelona.
