Haas F1 shows off new 2026 livery in partnership with Toyota

The Haas Formula 1 team became the third outfit to reveal its livery for the forthcoming 2026 season, with an increase in sponsorship with technical partner Toyota Gazoo Racing.

Both parties entered a technical partnership at the end of 2024, but the relationship has been strengthened for this year with the official name becoming ‘TGR Haas F1 Team’.

That has been reflected in the team’s new livery: Toyota has received branding across the engine cover, front wing and the front of the halo for the season which introduces widespread regulation changes.

The US-based outfit comes into it having finished eighth in last season’s constructors standings with Oliver Bearman and Esteban Ocon, who will remain as drivers this season, giving Haas its best points total of 79 points since 2018.

“Like all teams, we’ve faced the challenge of competing in 2025 while looking to design and now build these new-regulation entries for the 2026 season,” said owner Gene Haas, whose team has joined Red Bull and Racing Bulls in already launching their new design.

“The pre-season will be crucial to understand what these cars are capable of and how the drivers, engineers and teams in general adapt to them. We at least have continuity in terms of the drivers, with Ollie and Esteban, as well as in our design and engineering teams.

“Last season’s competition in the midfield was of an exceptionally high standard, it was tough, and we need to go out again and continue to develop – both on- and off-track. Personally, I’m going to be very interested to see how the competition shakes out across the grid and what these new regulations bring in terms of performance.”

The new livery features a lot more white than last year, with it replacing the previously black engine cover and front halo plus additional red to represent Toyota branding.

Haas also unveiled its design through a simple online event, rather than a big media presentation at Detroit like the Red Bull-owned teams.

And through the images provided, it is clear that Haas has gone for a pushrod front suspension and has opted for a pushrod setup at the rear as well. The renders also feature wide winglets on its front wing.

“It feels almost a bit surreal to be unveiling a new car this early in the year, but it’s not any less exciting venturing into a new F1 campaign – especially one with such a change in regulations,” said team principal Ayao Komatsu.

“We’re fully focused on being ready for shakedown week in Barcelona. It’s been a monumental effort from everyone on the team to work with such a tight turnaround time from the end of last season to putting cars on track in January.

“It goes without saying that after so much talk, we can’t wait to see how these cars will perform and what we’ll face as we then progress through our test programs ahead of Australia.

“Track time is going to be crucial through Spain and Bahrain and while we know there’s going to be challenges along the way, we do this because we’re passionate about Formula 1.”
