The German team was the first to test the car on a filming day in Barcelona earlier this month and is preparing for testing to begin on January 23.

The team used the colors they had previously promised in their initial designs. The front of the car will be chrome gray and the rear will be red and black.

Previously, Red Bull, Racing Bulls and Haas have presented their own liveries.

Preparations for the season were carried out with the participation of Aston Martin’s key partners and under the supervision of the team’s chief strategist Andy Cowell. The RA626H is designed to meet new regulatory requirements by providing maximum reliability and performance in the new environment.

Verstappen announced the conditions under which he will run in the legendary race in 2026

Max Verstappen says his participation in the Nürburgring 24 Hours is in doubt.

The four-time F1 champion has long been involved in endurance racing and is actively racing and testing in GT3, but full preparation for the Nordschleife marathon coincides with the Formula 1 calendar. The preparation races coincide with the F1 stages and the Dutchman does not want to go to the start without them.

“It’s very difficult to give a definitive answer right now,” Max said.

“I would like to start well prepared, but the preparation races coincide with Formula 1. Therefore, this year I will only be able to participate in the race if there is a change in the calendar.”

Therefore, Verstappen’s participation in the 2026 Nürburgring 24 Hours is still in doubt and directly depends on possible changes in the program or compromises between Formula 1 and the marathon training program.
