Updated September 2026.

Today the grid has eleven teams and the market has changed: fewer names on show on the cars, but much bigger sponsors, dominated by finance and technology. This page summarises, team by team, the main sponsors of 2026 and what they tell us about the market. To find out who the drivers and cars of each team are, read our article on the Formula 1 teams of 2026.

What the 2026 sponsors tell us
Three things emerge from the comparison with 2023. First: the title sponsor has become the norm, with ten teams out of eleven. Second: the mix of sectors has shifted towards finance and technology: payments (Mastercard, Visa, Cash App), fintech (Revolut), enterprise software (Oracle, Atlassian) and IT (HP) are now on the front of the cars. Third: categories that historically stayed away from motorsport are coming in, such as luxury fashion with Gucci in 2027.
The figures of the deals are almost always press estimates and not official data. To find out how much it really costs to get into F1, with the budget thresholds and the minimum length of the deals, read our guide to the cost of Formula 1 sponsorship.
