Formula 1 car launches: 2026 dates, schedule ahead of preseason testing, new regulations – Betarena

Major 2026 rules changes push F1 teams to reveal cars earlier, creating pre-season uncertainty. For bettors, expect volatile markets after January launches — favour short-term driver or preseason prop bets and avoid long-term constructors wagers until testing clarifies pace.
The 2026 Formula 1 regulations overhaul — aimed at producing more agile cars and better racing — has shifted the traditional launch calendar forward. Teams are revealing liveries and machines in January and early February, giving fans and pundits an earlier look ahead of preseason testing.
The technical reset is significant enough that teams face fresh design challenges and performance unknowns. Early reveals will show styling and initial packaging concepts, but true competitiveness will remain uncertain until on-track running in testing.
Red Bull / Racing Bulls F1 — Joint livery reveal and season launch: Jan 15, 2026, Detroit, Michigan Audi Team (launch and livery reveal): Jan 20, 2026, Berlin, Germany Alpine (likely car or livery reveal): Jan 23, 2026, Barcelona, Spain Cadillac (livery reveal): Jan 15, 2026 Haas (likely car or livery reveal): Feb 8, 2026, online Aston Martin (AMR26 arrival): Feb 9, 2026
Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will host behind-closed-doors sessions, with additional running at the Bahrain International Circuit. Teams will use these tests to validate 2026 concepts and reliability under the new rule set.

With launches concentrated in January, bookmakers and bettors can expect rapid market adjustments. Short-term opportunities include driver performance props, first-lap or sprint markets, and reliability-based bets. Punters should be cautious on long-term constructors markets until testing reveals genuine pecking order and reliability trends.
