2026 Brazilian Grand Prix: Herta FP1 run reported

Autosport and Motorsport.com reported Colton Herta is set for a Cadillac FP1 outing at the 2026 Brazilian Grand Prix as he pursues a final superlicence point.

Autosport and Motorsport.com reported that Colton Herta is set to drive for Cadillac F1 Team in first practice at the 2026 Brazilian Grand Prix. Both outlets said the session would be Herta’s sixth Friday practice appearance of the season and could provide the final FIA superlicence point he still needs to become eligible for a Formula 1 race seat.

Autosport also reported that Herta’s superlicence situation was still not fully resolved after his Mexico FP1 run, even though it had initially appeared he had reached the required total. The reports said Herta has been building mileage through private testing and earlier FP1 outings as he works toward a possible F1 campaign.

Cadillac is in its first Formula 1 season in 2026 and has yet to record a race win or a constructors’ title. If the reported plan is confirmed, the Brazil weekend would add another official session to Herta’s preparation with the new team.
