American F1 team just did the funniest thing ever with their British Grand Prix livery

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.

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.

Even for a team with substantial backing like Cadillac has, starting an F1 team from scratch is a tall order, and there have been plenty of growing pains. In fact, just this past weekend, both cars retired from the Grand Prix — Valtteri Bottas after just two laps, and Sergio Perez after four — and that came after a weekend of reliability issues.

But Cadillac is not the only American team on the grid. Haas — which has been in F1 since 2016 — is the other American team, and started the season strong, only to cool off as of late. They're currently sitting P7 in the constructors' standings.
