Formula 1 teams are gearing up for the 2026 season, with a flurry of car and livery launches planned. Red Bull and Racing Bulls already unveiled their new looks, incorporating blue accents in recognition of their partners. With new regulations and engines on the horizon, the launch season is more anticipated than ever, setting the stage for a competitive year.

Haas revealed digital images of their VF-26, becoming the first team to do so. Audi's transition will be made official in Berlin and Honda will hold its own event in Tokyo. These launches are crucial as teams prepare for pre-season testing. The first test will be behind closed doors in Barcelona, which will begin at the end of January.

Mercedes will showcase its W17 on January 22, while Ferrari aims for a bounce-back year with their launch on January 23. The launches are taking place earlier than usual, with teams aiming to get ahead of the competition. The new season promises exciting changes, with the power units featuring a 50-50 split between electrical and internal combustion engine power.
