Dan Towriss's Gulfstream lands in Indianapolis the week of the Cadillac F1 team's US homecoming

Dan Towriss's aircraft, a 2019 Gulfstream G650 registered through a TVPX trust, was tracked flying from Richmond International to Indianapolis Executive on September 16, touching down at 9:13 PM local after a 1-hour, 13-minute hop that peaked at 40,025 feet. The flight itself is unremarkable for a jet that has spent the past week shuttling between Indianapolis, Teterboro, and Kansas City — but the destination, and its timing, tell the quieter story.

If Dan Towriss was aboard, he would have arrived back in Indianapolis the same week the Cadillac Formula 1 team is expected to hold its North American operational review ahead of the final stretch of the 2026 season — a season that saw the team score its first points at the Miami Grand Prix in May, per a team statement. The Indianapolis headquarters, where Group 1001 and the American arm of the operation are based, would be the natural place for a debrief on the team's performance at the recent Monza and Madrid rounds, and for planning the upcoming Austin and Las Vegas races. The flight from Richmond, a city not typically associated with the F1 calendar, adds a layer of curiosity — though it could easily be a repositioning leg or a personal stop.

The recent flight pattern shows a clear rhythm: after a September 13 hop from Milan to Madrid, the jet flew to Indianapolis on September 14, then made a quick turn to Teterboro, followed by a series of legs through Kansas City and Richmond before returning home. That Kansas City stop is notable — Spire Motorsports, one of TWG Motorsports' holdings, fields NASCAR Cup Series entries, and the team was racing at Kansas Speedway on September 13, per NASCAR's schedule. If was on those flights, the timing would suggest he was juggling F1 factory visits in Europe with a NASCAR race weekend in the Midwest, then looping back to Indianapolis for the week.
