A first-of-its-kind 2026 pit-stop-ready show car has been unveiled ahead of the new F1 season.
British memorabilia specialist, Memento Exclusives, has recreated the new 2026 regulations with unprecedented authenticity. Each show car incorporates genuine carbon fibre components, official Pirelli tyres, and functional steering systems alongside fully movable wheels.
Key innovations include reinforced front wings and rear crash structures capable of supporting front and rear jacks, enabling genuine pit-stop demonstrations outside official F1 environments.
The design features a two-section floor for installation flexibility, hidden crane towing points, and a newly developed halo with wall-mounting capabilities.
Technical enhancements extend to heat-treated exhausts for greater realism, updated rear lighting systems, and a camlock mechanism for rapid nosecone and front-wing assembly.
The aerodynamic surfaces precisely mirror the 2026 technical regulations, developed using computer-aided design data from F1 teams.
"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 F1," said Barry Gough, founder and CEO.
"The innovations we have made to our show cars for 2026 promise to deliver the most authentic experience ever."
