Cadillac F1 team eye Red Bull star as 'concrete talks' revealed

Cadillac is actively pursuing Craig Skinner, a former chief designer for Red Bull, as they expand their Formula 1 team. Skinner, who has a long history with Red Bull, was instrumental during their successful years, including Max Verstappen's championship wins. He was released from Red Bull in February 2026 and is currently on gardening leave, making him available for a new role.

In addition to Skinner, Cadillac is reportedly interested in Red Bull's chief engineer, Paul Monaghan, although his potential transfer remains uncertain. The talks with Skinner indicate Cadillac's serious intentions to strengthen their team as they enter the competitive F1 landscape.
