About Mercedes-AMG in 2026

Mercedes-AMG Petronas, run from Brackley with its power units built in Brixworth, dominated the first hybrid era like no team before it, taking eight consecutive constructors' championships from 2014 to 2021 and powering Lewis Hamilton to six of his seven titles. Led by Toto Wolff, the team remains one of the sport's benchmark operations even after the ground-effect rules of 2022 ended its run at the top.

For 2026 Mercedes fields George Russell alongside Italian prodigy Andrea Kimi Antonelli, one of the most highly rated rookies in years. Crucially, the 2026 power-unit regulations are seen as home turf: Mercedes is a works engine manufacturer, and the last time the rules changed this dramatically — in 2014 — it built the most dominant package in F1 history. Follow this page for the latest on whether Brixworth can repeat that feat.
