Alfa Romeo ended their sponsorship deal with Sauber, with the team reverting to their original name.

Driver Changes

There were no changes between the final round of a season and the first round of a new season for the first time in F1 history.
Carlos Sainz missed the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix as he had an appendicitis. He was replaced by Oliver Bearman. Bearman became the third youngest driver to start a race in F1 History.
Logan Sargeant missed the Australian Grand Prix after he surrendered his car to team-mate Alex Albon after Albon crashed his car in practise.
Logan Sargeant was fired after crashing in practise of the Dutch Grand Prix, resulting in him missing qualifying. He was replaced by F2 driver Franco Colapinto, who became the first Argentine driver in F1 since Gastón Mazzacane in 2001.
Kevin Magnussen was banned from the Azerbaijan Grand Prix after accumulating 12 penalty points. He was replaced by Oliver Bearman, who drove for the team in 2025.
Racing Bulls decided to terminate Daniel Ricciardo's contract after the Singapore Grand Prix with no proper send off. He was replaced by Liam Lawson, who deputised for five races in 2023.
Kevin Magnussen fell ill prior to the Brazilian Grand Prix, and was once again replaced by Oliver Bearman
