Is Zhou Guanyu Joining Cadillac? Last week, Ferrari announced the departure of the Chinese driver as a reserve driver for Scuderia, but Zhou may have already landed a new gig with the American team.

Zhou Guanyu proudly held the title of Formula 1 driver for Sauber for three years before making way for Nico Hülkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto at the end of 2024. The Chinese driver then took on a reserve role at Ferrari, but shockingly, he never got behind the wheel of the SF-25 during the 2025 season. Consequently, Ferrari revealed in early January that Zhou would be parting ways with the Italian racing team.

Just hours after Ferrari’s announcement, Cadillac’s social media channels lit up with a post hinting at Zhou’s potential entry into the American team. The posted image of a cat’s eye features the number 24—Zhou’s racing number. Also visible is the date January 5, which is speculated to be the announcement date for the possible collaboration between the driver and Cadillac.

If Zhou indeed becomes a reserve driver for Cadillac, he will share this role with Formula 2 debutant Colton Herta.It seems there was a misunderstanding.
