Valtteri Bottas has downplayed speculation linking him to a potential Cadillac Formula 1 seat, stating that the team has more pressing issues to address before considering driver line-ups.

The Finnish driver, currently racing for Alfa Romeo, commented on the ongoing discussions surrounding Cadillac's possible entry into the championship. He emphasized that the focus should be on solving larger structural and technical challenges rather than on driver selections.

Cadillac, under General Motors, has expressed interest in joining Formula 1 as a power unit supplier and potentially as a full works team. While driver market rumors have circulated, Bottas suggested that the priority lies elsewhere.
