Bottas Wears Cadillac’s Western-Stitched Austin Race Suit

Key Takeaways

What Bottas’s Austin suit looks like

Cadillac’s special suit for the United States Grand Prix in Austin is black on the upper body and arms and white on the legs. Photos released by the team show Valtteri Bottas wearing it in an old workshop garage.

The black sections are covered with white western-style stitching: double stitched outlines, scroll and leaf motifs, stars and a horseshoe, in the style of a hand-stitched cowboy boot. The team’s caption read simply: “Stitched with purpose 🇺🇸”.

Details on the back and legs

The back of the suit features the Cadillac crest, “CADILLAC FORMULA 1 TEAM” and TWG inside a stitched western-style yoke, with the Tommy Hilfiger flag above.

A black panel with the same stitching and stars runs down the side of the leg, next to “Cadillac” written in large script. Sponsor names visible include TWG, Tommy Hilfiger, Jim Beam, Tenneco and 3M, along with Alpinestars logos.

Pérez’s suit shares the design

Sergio Pérez’s suit uses the same design as Bottas’s. One close-up shows it with “CHECO” and the number 11 on the leg, confirming both Cadillac drivers will carry the stitched theme in Austin.

The look ties the suits directly to the team’s Austin car livery, giving the whole package one western-inspired identity.
