The 2026 Formula 1 season is fast approaching. Over the past few days, teams have been unveiling their new colours. Here\u2019s a look back at the 11 liveries for 2026, a first glimpse of what promises to be an exciting season.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 2026 Formula 1 <\/strong>season, synonymous with a new era in the history of the sport, kicked off with the usual round of livery presentations. With the unveiling of Cadillac, McLaren and Aston Martin on Monday 9 February, the 2026 grid is now complete!<\/p>\n

The 2026 liveries were eagerly awaited, not least because they offered a first glimpse of the new generation of cars, which are shorter and narrower than their predecessors. This season also marks the entry of two new teams: Audi<\/strong>, replacing Sauber, and Cadillac<\/strong>, which becomes the eleventh team to join the grid.<\/p>\n

Striking liveries…<\/h3>\n

The two newcomers to the grid, Audi and Cadillac, naturally attracted a lot of attention. The Audi R26 is mainly decorated in silver grey, as well as red and black, the German manufacturer’s historic colours. As for Cadillac, the American firm unveiled the first F1 car in its history, and it is certainly unique! Its asymmetrical livery, with one side white and the other black, makes it one of a kind.<\/p>\n

Other American team, Haas<\/strong>, with Esteban Ocon and Oliver Bearman, sports more white, as a result of Toyota Gazoo Racing becoming the title partner of the team led by Ayao Komatsu.<\/p>\n

At Red Bull Racing<\/strong>, the Austrian team has returned to a metallic blue reminiscent of its early-2010s cars, a nod to its new beginnings with engine partner Ford. The number 1 leaves Max Verstappen\u2019s car and is now displayed on that of newly crowned world champion Lando Norris. The Dutchman has chosen the number 3.<\/p>\n

Then, as every year, the Mercedes<\/strong> and Ferrari<\/strong> cars are always eagerly awaited. Mercedes has largely kept its colours, while the Ferrari SF-26 driven by Lewis Hamilton and Monegasque Charles Leclerc features more white and a lighter red than its predecessors.<\/p>\n

…others rather similar<\/h3>\n

Even though the single-seaters have changed, some liveries have remained virtually the same. Racing Bulls<\/strong> has kept its white base, with a little more carbon than the 2025 livery. As for Williams<\/strong>, it has lightened up with white and sky blue sidepods.<\/p>\n

Finally, Alpine<\/strong>, Aston Martin<\/strong> and McLaren<\/strong>‘s 2026 liveries are almost identical to last season’s. The only change for the reigning world champions is that Lando Norris now wears the number 1 on his McLaren MCL40.<\/p>\n
