This is the betting company Stake, which will also take the opportunity to announce its Kick streaming platform. So the official name of the team will be Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber. During races, the team must be called Kick Sauber or just Sauber.
Remembering that this name already appears with a date to no longer be used: Sauber is going through a transition process, and will become Audi’s factory team from 2026. The Germans are gradually becoming the shareholders majority of the team.
Another change is in Aston Martin’s master sponsor, from Cognizant to Aramco. The Saudi oil company was already a partner of the team, but is increasing its participation. They are also fundamental in the partnership with Honda, which will supply engines to Aston from 2026. Every now and then there is talk in the paddock that Aston owner Lawrence Stroll’s objective is to sell the team to the Saudis in the future, but he still believes that the business can increase in value.
And why are all these changes already agreed for 2026? This is when F1 debuts a new engine regulation, with power units half powered by electricity and half by biofuel.
