Memento Exclusives Unveils First Look at Official Licensed 2026 F1 Show Car Programme

Motorsport Valley, UK: Memento Exclusives has revealed an exciting first look at its official licensed 2026 Formula 1 Show Car programme, showcasing a brand-new design that accurately recreates the shape and proportions of cars built under the forthcoming 2026 F1 regulations. The latest edition introduces several innovations, including the world’s first-ever commercial ‘Pit-Stop Ready’ F1 Show Car.

Developed for elite events, brand activations and private collectors, the 2026 F1 Show Car represents the closest experience to an actual Formula 1 race car outside the paddock.

Built for Authenticity and Elite Display

Each 2026 F1 Show Car is constructed using genuine carbon fibre components and features official Pirelli tyres, functional steering and fully movable wheels. The enhanced design incorporates a new rear lighting system, a heat-treated exhaust for added realism and a newly designed halo structure, which includes wall-mounted fixings for display when not in use.

A newly developed camlock mechanism enables quick and secure attachment of the nosecone and front-wing assembly, further enhancing the show car’s realism and modularity.

First-Ever Commercial Pit-Stop Ready Show Car

Setting a new benchmark, the 2026 F1 Show Car becomes the first commercial show car capable of pit-stop style operations. Reinforced front wings and rear crash structures allow for front and rear jack capabilities, while a two-section floor design enables easier installation in locations with restricted access.

Additional functional features include a hidden towing eye for crane hoisting, making the car suitable for complex installations at launch events, exhibitions and premium hospitality venues.

Designed for Launch Stages, VIP Spaces and Collectors

Whether showcased on a global launch stage, displayed at partner events, installed within VIP hospitality suites or admired in a private collection, the 2026 F1 Show Car delivers a commanding presence and unmistakable motorsport prestige.

Every aerodynamic surface, livery detail and finish has been meticulously developed to ensure absolute authenticity. The final form balances technical excellence with visual impact, making it equally at home on a Formula 1 grid or in a gallery setting.

Official F1 Partner Through 2030

Earlier this year, Formula 1 announced the extension of its licence agreement with Memento Exclusives through 2030. The UK-based memorabilia specialist was first appointed an official F1® partner in 2019 and has since operated F1 Authentics under licence.

As the official manufacturer and supplier of F1 Show Cars, Memento Exclusives builds every car at its headquarters using computer-aided design data supplied by F1 teams, ensuring faithful and precise reproduction for teams, promoters and official partners.

Leadership View

Commenting on the announcement, Barry Gough, Founder & CEO of Memento Exclusives, said:

“The new regulations coming into force and new teams joining the grid in 2026 make this the most exciting time ever to be involved with Formula 1. The innovations we have introduced promise to deliver the most authentic Show Car experience ever. We can’t wait for teams, partners and collectors to experience our most advanced Show Cars to date.”
