New and changed teams

- Audi: completes its takeover of Sauber this season and runs its own engine.
- Aston Martin: becomes a works team with Honda.
- Alpine: Renault leaves F1, and the Alpine team now uses Mercedes engines.
What the engine split means
Teams that share an engine supplier get the same basic power unit. The difference between them then comes from the chassis, aerodynamics, tires and strategy. This is why two teams with the same engine can finish far apart.
Who supplies which engines
Five engine makers supply the 11 teams in 2026. The list below shows which teams share an engine supplier.
- Mercedes: Mercedes, McLaren, Alpine and Williams.
- Ferrari: Ferrari, Haas and Cadillac.
- Red Bull Ford: Red Bull and Racing Bulls.
- Honda: Aston Martin.
- Audi: Audi.
Teammate pairings to watch
Ferrari has Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton in the same garage. McLaren pairs Lando Norris with Oscar Piastri, and Mercedes pairs George Russell with Kimi Antonelli. At Red Bull, Max Verstappen is joined by Isack Hadjar. A pairing matters because teammates drive the same car, so the comparison between them is the cleanest measure of a driver’s pace.
How to read the car numbers
Each driver has a car number shown on the car. Fans often use the numbers on timing screens and team radio graphics. The number is listed beside each name in the table above, so you can match a car on TV to its driver.
