TWG Global CEO Mark Walter is reportedly seeking at least $3 billion for the Cadillac F1 team, according to Sportico, which reports at least seven parties are interested in buying it. The sale comes as the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission investigate whether TWG Global disclosed affiliated assets tied to Indiana-based insurers Delaware Life and Clear Spring Life and Annuity.
Why it matters
The potential sale and the federal probe could reshape ownership of a Formula One team with a base in Indiana. The investigation centers on whether customer premiums were funneled into companies related to or controlled by Walter, an allegation TWG Global has denied.
Sportico reports at least seven parties are interested in acquiring the team at a minimum asking price of $3 billion. A lawsuit filed October 12 alleges two related-party bonds totaling $309.8 million, and the claims remain unproven.

Season Trajectory
American investment in Formula One has grown since Liberty Media acquired the sport's commercial rights, and Cadillac F1 is one of the newest American-backed entries. The reported sale would reshape that footprint while the team has scored no points with four races remaining in 2026.
A sale would determine who controls Cadillac F1's second seat decisions, including whether Colton Herta is considered for 2027. Fans following the team's remaining four races in 2026 may see changes in ownership and driver plans.
