Not only were the new colors of the Red Bull shown, but also those of sister team Visa Cash App Racing Bulls. There is one notable detail… <\/p>\n

New era, new car<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For Max Verstappen, 2026 means more than just a new season. Motorsport’s highest class will be running under updated technical rules, with modified aerodynamics, more electrification and a greater focus on spectacle during the race, organizers said. You can read all the details here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Familiar colors, sleeker design<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Despite these rule changes, the livery of the Red Bull car remains fairly faithful to the familiar recipe. Dark blue again forms the base, with contrasting red and yellow accents that make the car instantly recognizable as “Max’s. Visa Cash App Racing Bulls car was also shown, with clearly its own style and lighter livery. <\/p>\n

Ford back in Formula One<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the background, Ford Racing plays an important role for Verstappen and Red Bull Racing. The brand is returning to Formula 1 after 22 years and, together with Red Bull Powertrains, is supplying the powerplant for both Red Bull Racing and Racing Bulls. So no more Honda on the Red Bull, but the Ford logo will be visible in the years to come! <\/p>\n

Warm-up Round<\/strong><\/h2>\n

With four-time world champion Max Verstappen at the wheel and a completely new set of regulations on the horizon, 2026 promises to be a special season for Formula One – also because there are new players, such as Audi<\/a> and Cadillac. <\/p>\n

On March 6 to 8, the spectacle erupts again and Formula 1 descends on Australia. The race at the Circuit van Zandvoort will take place August 21-23 and Jan Lammers explains why this will be a special edition<\/a>. <\/p>\n
