Formula 1 will once again have a huge presence at the 2026 Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard. Following on from the history-making F1 75 celebrations in 2025, Goodwood will be following that up with another unmissable F1 showcase, and we’ll have all the details right here as we build up to another exciting event. Here are all the F1 teams confirmed to be joining us at the 2026 Festival of Speed.

Williams 

Williams has become the first F1 team to announce its plans for the 2026 Festival of Speed, as we look ahead to celebrating the 30th anniversary of Damon Hill’s World Championship triumph with the Grove outfit. 

The car that he drove to the title, the Williams FW18, has been expertly restored by Williams F1 Team Heritage, and it will be ready to fire up once again and tackle the famous Goodwood Hill in the hands of Hill, in July. 

The 1996 World Champion will be sharing driving duties with Williams Team Principal James Vowles, Williams Reserve and Super Formula driver Luke Browning, and Williams F1 Academy Adviser Jamie Chadwick. Each of them will have an incredible opportunity to drive the Williams FW18 up the Hill across the weekend.
