Formula 1's class of 2026: A new era begins ...Middle East

The wait is finally over. Formula 1 gathered its 22-man roster in Bahrain this Wednesday for the official "Class of 2026" portrait, marking the dawn of a transformative technical era. As engines fired up for the final three days of pre-season testing, the grid balance feels both fresh and familiar.

Standing out among the veterans is 18-year-old Arvid Lindblad, who holds the distinct honor of being the only true rookie on the 2026 grid. While the Racing Bulls newcomer prepares for his debut, the ageless Fernando Alonso remains at 44 the sport’s ultimate "senior citizen."

The picture also highlights the presence of veteran F1 returnees Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez who are back on the grid with Grand Prix racing’s eleventh entrant, Cadillac F1.
