The 2026 rules overhaul marks arguably the biggest reset in Formula 1 history, with both the chassis and engine regulations changing at the same time.
And that means plenty of intrigue about what those challengers will look like in particular.
Here's what F1 teams have confirmed about their launch plans so far:
Red Bull + Racing Bulls - January 15 (livery only)
Red Bull and sister outfit Racing Bulls were the first Formula 1 teams to announce launch plans ahead of the 2026 season.
The liveries both teams will race in will be unveiled at an event being held in conjunction with Ford Racing, Red Bull Powertrains' new-for-2026 partner, in Detroit on January 15.
But that announcement referred only to the launch of their "respective liveries for a new generation of cars" and not the designs with which they will start the new regulations era.
Aston Martin - February 9
Aston Martin became the first team to reveal when its 2026 car will be launched with an announcement on December 1.
It said the AMR26 - its first Adrian Newey-designed, Honda-powered F1 car - will be revealed on February 9 next year.
That comes 10 days after the end of the first on-track running for the new 2026 cars - a behind-closed-doors test at Barcelona from January 26-30.
