American F1 team just did the funniest thing ever with their British Grand Prix livery
Dan Dakich reacts to Alyssa Thomas' statement to the media after her hit to Caitlin Clark
This weekend, we'll be celebrating the 250th anniversary of our independence from Great Britain, and one Formula 1 team is celebrating with one heck of a troll move, whether it was intentional or not.
The British Grand Prix takes place this weekend at Silverstone. It's one of the marquee races on the F1 calendar that just so happens to fall on Independence Day weekend, with the Sprint race and Grand Prix qualifying taking place on the fourth.
Of course, Cadillac, F1's newest team, is American and leaning into it, so, naturally, they want to celebrate their first Fourth of July on the grid.

They're doing that with a special stars-and-stripes livery — their second of the season after running a black-and-white one in Miami — all weekend long.
It looks spectacular, and let's not pretend that running it all weekend long in Great Britain on the U.S.'s 250th birthday isn't absolutely hilarious.
That's a great splash of red, white and blue on the grid, and I feel like decking the car out in an American-ified livery and letting it cruise around Silverstone is a nice victory lap for the U-S-of-A.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
Unfortunately, the last lap laugh might go to the British, because there's a very good, almost certain chance that this car — as lovely as it is — will not be anywhere near the front in any session.
