The 2026 Formula 1 season opens on March 8 at the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne's Albert Park, launching a new era with smaller redesigned cars, 50% electrified hybrid engines, active aerodynamics replacing DRS, and an expanded 11-team grid including newcomers Cadillac and Audi. Defending champion Lando Norris of McLaren faces strong preseason favorites Mercedes and George Russell (+200 odds), with Ferrari and Red Bull close behind; Aston Martin struggled in testing despite Adrian Newey's leadership.
