United States Grand Prix 2026: Ferrari floor report

News - 2026-10-17 - By Jenny Marsh

Motorsport.com reported Ferrari is expected to bring a new floor to the United States Grand Prix, in what would be its final major 2026 upgrade.

Ferrari is expected to bring a new floor to the United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas, according to Motorsport.com. The outlet reported that the update would be the team’s final major development step of the 2026 Formula 1 season, but there has been no official confirmation from Ferrari.

Motorsport.com also reported that Ferrari has already turned its main focus toward its 2027 car while still planning this late-season package for Austin. Until the team confirms the change, the update remains a reported development rather than an established fact.

Ferrari is Formula 1’s longest-running constructor, with 77 seasons from 1950 to 2026, 250 race wins and 16 constructors’ titles. That record gives context to any decision on whether to keep developing the current car while resources shift to the next rules cycle.
