Aston Martin will round out the grid as they become the final team to unveil their machine for the 2026 season on Monday, February 9.
After Cadillac's late-night reveal via the Super Bowl, the British team will be the secind team to reveal its car to the world after McLaren did so a few hours earlier.
Huge amounts of excitement surround Aston Martin in 2026, with master technical director and now team principal Adrian Newey involved in the design and creation of the AMR26, as well as a new, exclusive partnership with Honda.

All you need to know about Aston Martin's livery reveal

The livery reveal for Aston Martin will take place in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, with Newey, executive chairman Lawrence Stroll, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll all expected to be present.
The event will get underway at 22:00 local time (19:00 GMT), and it will be shown across all of Aston Martin's social media channels, along with Sky Sports F1.
An extended version of the event will be shown on the team's TikTok channel, starting 45 minutes earlier than the event.

Newey's first car for Aston

Will Adrian Newey's first car designed for Aston Martin be a hit? He is already said he arrived late in the project and spoken about setbacks.
Speaking to the Aston Martin F1 team website, Newey explained that the evolving nature of the team’s technical centre, alongside delays with the wind tunnel, meant work on the 2026 car could not begin until April. "The AMR Technology Campus is still evolving, the CoreWeave Wind Tunnel wasn't fully operational until April, and I only joined the team last March, so we've started from behind, in truth. It's been a very compressed timescale and an extremely busy 10 months,” he explained.
Newey stressed the impact of the delayed wind tunnel testing, explaining how it forced the Silverstone-based outfit to compress research and design cycles.
