The next chapter of Formula 1 is upon us, with the new-for-2026 regulations promising to shake up the pecking order.
This season the championship's rules have been revamped in the biggest shake up the sport has seen for more than a decade. A revised aerodynamic package will deliver new-look cars, while an overhauled set of power unit rules means we have got a roughly 50-50 power split between Advanced Sustainable Fuels and electrical energy.
On top of that, 2026 also brings us new terms to get familiar with such as Overtake, Boost and Recharge.
All of this begs the question – who from our cast of 11 teams has nailed the change in regulations? Well, we're giving you the chance to cast your pre-season – and pre-Bahrain testing – predictions as we ask just that, who do you think will be strongest right from the get-go?
