The Racing Bulls VCARB 03 is a Formula One car designed and constructed by Racing Bulls to compete in the 2026 Formula One World Championship. It is to be driven Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad, the latter in his first season in Formula One.
The VCARB 03 is the first Faenza-based Formula One car not to use Honda engines since the Toro Rosso STR12 in 2017, as well as the first car to use a Ford-branded engine since the Minardi PS04B in 2004.
Background
[edit]Development
[edit]The VCARB 03's foundations and technical direction were laid by former technical director Jody Egginton with subsequent design and development led by chief technical officer Tim Goss and deputy technical directors Guillaume Cattelani and Andrea Landi , the VCARB 03 is drastically different to its predecessor due to the 2026 Formula One regulation changes. The VCARB 03 debuted at Imola in January 2026 and featured in the shakedown test in Barcelona in the same month.[1]
Livery
[edit]The VCARB 03 livery was revealed during a live event at Detroit, the home of Ford, alongside its sister team Red Bull Racing on 15 January 2026.[2] The car maintains the "Racing Bulls" identity with a heavy emphasis on white and blue. Title sponsors Visa and Cash App remain prominent on the sidepods and engine cover. The 2026 livery introduced more exposed carbon fiber to save weight.[3]
Competition history
[edit]The VCARB 03 is set to make its competitive debut at the 2026 Australian Grand Prix.[4]
