Honda says it is considering a formal return to Formula 1 to coincide with the new engine regulations that will be introduced in 2026. The company officially pulled out of F1 at the end of 2021, although its engines are still used by the two Red Bull teams and will be called Hondas again in 2023. But since then, Honda has had a new president, and more clarity has emerged on the 2026 rules. The Honda name is formally returning to F1 this year after a season’s absence, with the engine used by Red Bull officially titled a Honda RBPT.
