The 2026 season marks a structural reset for Formula 1, with new technical regulations reshaping car dimensions and aerodynamic architecture across the grid. Ferrari enters this era under the Scuderia Ferrari HP banner, following the title partnership with HP (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) announced in 2024 — a collaboration that reshaped the team's commercial identity and introduced the white engine cover detail that now distinguishes the SF-26's livery from every previous Scuderia Ferrari car.
Ferrari SF-26: Ferrari's 2026 Formula 1 Challenger
The SF-26 is Ferrari's first car designed wholly around the 2026 FIA Formula 1 technical regulations, succeeding the SF-25 lineage. The 2026 rule set introduces significant changes to car dimensions and power unit architecture, and Ferrari's response is campaigned under the Scuderia Ferrari HP name — a branding shift that reflects the HP title partnership formalised in 2024. Sponsors running on the SF-26 include HP, UniCredit, Shell, CEVA Logistics, IBM, PUMA, and Richard Mille.
