The AMR26 is the first F1 machine designed for the team by Adrian Newey, AMAF1 Managing Technical Partner and Team Principal, and it is being developed at the AMR Technology Campus, at AMAF1 headquarters in Silverstone, the U.K.
Together with AMAF1, Honda will conduct pre-season testing in Bahrain for a total of six days, — February 11-13 and 18-20 — and make necessary adjustments before taking on the season-opening race at the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday, March 8, 2026.
