Red Bull Racing F1 Merchandise 2026: Castore Kit, Verstappen & Hadjar Gear
Red Bull Racing fans shopping for 2026 gear will find something rarer on this year's grid: continuity. While three other teams tore up their apparel deals, Red Bull kept its supplier and instead changed half its driver lineup. Here's what's actually official, why the driver numbers look different, and where each type of Red Bull gear fits.
Red Bull Racing has been one of the grid's most dominant teams of the last two decades, and for 2026 its merchandise story is less about a new look and more about who's wearing it. The kit deal that's been in place since 2022 continues unchanged, but the driver next to Max Verstappen has changed — and Verstappen himself is racing under a new number for the first time in his career. Here's what that actually means for anyone shopping Red Bull gear this season.
Red Bull Racing F1 by the Numbers
- Castore stays put: Castore has been Red Bull Racing's official kit and apparel partner since 2022 and continues into 2026 without a switch — unlike Mercedes (now Adidas), McLaren (now Puma) and Cadillac (Tommy Hilfiger), all of which changed suppliers this season.
- No. 3 and No. 6: Max Verstappen races with No. 3 in 2026, switching from the No. 33 he'd used his entire career, while new teammate Isack Hadjar carries No. 6.
- A reserve-role swap: Isack Hadjar replaces Yuki Tsunoda as Verstappen's race-seat teammate for 2026; Tsunoda moves into a reserve-driver role with the team.
- Six Constructors' titles: Red Bull Racing has won the Constructors' Championship six times — 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2022 and 2023.
- Four Drivers' titles, one narrow miss: Verstappen won four consecutive Drivers' titles from 2021 to 2024, then finished runner-up in 2025, losing to Lando Norris by just two points, 423 to 421.
What's Actually Official Right Now
1. Castore x Red Bull Racing 2026 Kit
This is the official race-team merchandise: replica polos, team t-shirts, hoodies and caps carrying Castore's technical branding alongside Red Bull's navy-and-red colorway, sold through the Red Bull Racing team store and the F1 Store. Driver-specific caps and tees are available for both Verstappen and Hadjar. Search Red Bull Racing F1-style caps on Amazon for lower-priced licensed and fan-made alternatives to team-store pricing.
2. The Hypebeast Night-Race Capsule
Red Bull and Castore also partnered with streetwear brand Hypebeast on a limited-edition collection built for night races like Singapore and Las Vegas. The capsule runs a night-camo pattern across a short-sleeve polo, a long-sleeve quarter-zip carrying Red Bull, Castore and Hypebeast branding, and a water-resistant rain jacket with 3M reflective material positioned to catch circuit lighting. It's a streetwear drop rather than race-day kit, so expect limited availability rather than standing team-store stock.
3. Why the Kit Looks the Same This Year
Where Mercedes, McLaren and Cadillac all changed apparel suppliers for 2026, Red Bull didn't — Castore has held the account since 2022 and continues it into this season. That continuity means older Castore-branded Red Bull product doesn't automatically read as out of date the way a Puma-branded McLaren item or a pre-Adidas Mercedes item now does; the practical difference to check for is the current season's design details and driver numbers, not the supplier logo.
4. Two Numbers, One Teammate Change
Verstappen's switch from No. 33 to No. 3 is the headline number change (see our full Max Verstappen merchandise guide for the Daniel Ricciardo backstory behind it). The less-discussed change is next to him: Isack Hadjar takes the second seat and No. 6 for 2026, with Yuki Tsunoda shifting to a reserve-driver role rather than leaving the team outright. Any gear search for "Red Bull No. 2" or older Tsunoda-branded product reflects the outgoing lineup, not 2026's.
5. Everyday & Collector Items
Beyond the official Castore kit and the Hypebeast capsule, most everyday Red Bull product fans encounter is general F1-licensed fan gear rather than a team-store exclusive — and that's where our category guides come in.

How to Shop Red Bull Racing Merchandise Smart
Check the Number, Not Just the Supplier Logo
Because Castore's deal is unchanged, the Castore logo alone won't tell you if an item is current — check for No. 3 (Verstappen) or No. 6 (Hadjar) branding and 2026 season details, since older Castore-era Red Bull stock can carry Verstappen's retired No. 33 or Tsunoda's No. 22.
Decide Between Verstappen and Hadjar Product
Both drivers now have their own caps and tees in the 2026 range, so decide whether you want a piece tied to Verstappen's new No. 3 or Hadjar's rookie-teammate No. 6 before you buy — the driver-specific pieces aren't interchangeable, and Hadjar gear is newer to market with less selection so far.
Use Amazon for Everyday Items, Team Channels for Exclusive Drops
If you want this season's exact Castore kit or the Hypebeast capsule, the team store, F1 Store and Hypebeast's own channels are the only sources for genuine product. For general caps, mugs, posters and desk items, Amazon's F1-licensed fan gear is typically the lower-cost route.
Frequently Asked Questions
What number does Max Verstappen drive in 2026?
Max Verstappen switched from his long-time No. 33 to No. 3 for the 2026 season, his preferred number that had been held by Daniel Ricciardo until Ricciardo's retirement after the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix. See our full Max Verstappen merchandise guide for the complete No. 33 to No. 3 backstory.
Who is Isack Hadjar and what number does he drive?
Isack Hadjar is Max Verstappen's new Red Bull Racing teammate for 2026, driving car No. 6. He replaces Yuki Tsunoda, who moves into a reserve-driver role with the team for the season.
Who makes Red Bull Racing's 2026 team kit?
Castore remains Red Bull Racing's official apparel and kit partner for 2026, a relationship that has run since 2022. That makes Red Bull one of the few top teams that did not switch kit suppliers this season, unlike Mercedes (now Adidas), McLaren (now Puma) and new entrant Cadillac (Tommy Hilfiger).
How many championships has Red Bull Racing won?
Red Bull Racing has won six Constructors' Championships: 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2022 and 2023. Max Verstappen has four Drivers' titles (2021-2024), though he lost the 2025 championship to Lando Norris by just two points, 423 to 421.
Where can I buy official Red Bull Racing merchandise?
Official Castore x Red Bull Racing gear sells through the team's own store and the F1 Store, including the limited-edition Hypebeast collaboration capsule for night races like Singapore and Las Vegas. Amazon carries general F1-licensed fan gear (caps, models, posters) as a lower-cost alternative to official team-store pricing.
The Bottom Line
