Ferrari unveils 2026 race suits with white accents and HP controversy

Ferrari has revealed its new race suits for the 2026 Formula 1 season, featuring a refreshed red design with prominent white accents. Drivers Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc showcased the suits in a video on the team's YouTube channel. While fans praise the look, the blue Hewlett-Packard logo has sparked outrage.

On January 19, 2026, Ferrari unveiled its race suits for the upcoming Formula 1 season through a video posted on the Scuderia's YouTube channel. Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc, the team's drivers, presented the design, which maintains the traditional red base but introduces heavier white accenting around the shoulders, neckline, sides of the torso, and down the legs. The suits eliminate the horizontal stripe from the previous year, replaced by vertical white lines that separate the chest and shoulder panels, creating a sharper silhouette.

The design evokes Ferrari's 2007 race suits, worn by Kimi Räikkönen and Felipe Massa. Sponsor logos are positioned higher on the chest, with the Prancing Horse emblem opposite the blue Hewlett-Packard title sponsor logo. This aesthetic is expected to extend to team personnel uniforms, merchandise, and the SF-26 car's livery, set for reveal on January 23.

Fan reactions were mixed. One enthusiast commented, "Take my money, my portfolio and whatever you want. I need one of these RIGHT NOW." Another noted, "I actually like the suits, the white is nice. I hate that the shoes are a different colour though, they literally look like clown shoes."

However, the blue HP logo drew significant criticism. A commenter urged, "HP needs to drop the blue please." Another threatened, "If the logo isn’t white on the car I’m telling everyone I know and ever meet to never buy, search or have anything to do with HP ever," adding, "Why are you OK with a matching logo on Real Madrid but not Ferrari?"

The announcement followed the confirmation of WHOOP as Ferrari's official health and fitness wearable partner. The devices will monitor team members' physical health, stress, and recovery throughout the 24-round season, aligning with new regulations on sustainable fuels and increased electrical power.
