The Japanese vehicle manufacturer Honda announced on Wednesday its return to Formula 1 in 2026 as a supplier of engines and other equipment to the Aston Martin team, it announced at a press conference.
“Honda has decided to participate in the Formula 1 world championship as an engine supplier from the 2026 season,” said Honda president Toshihiro Mibe during the appearance, who sees the firm’s participation in racing sports as ” a means of research” for the development of its products.
Honda withdrew from Formula 1 in 2021 to focus its resources on the decarbonisation of its models, although they maintain a technical maintenance agreement with Red Bull until 2025, to whom it supplied engines until its last withdrawal, which it will reverse with the Aston Martin Aramco Honda team.
