2025 was a learning year for Simspark Racing  — 2026 is meant to be the year of execution. With a better understanding of the system, clearer processes, and a start package that should work right away, the team wants to be “in it” from the very first race. How they rate the pre-season, why the competition looks even tougher this year, and what targets they’re setting is explained by James Hayter , Alvin Tran  and Christian Dittmer  in this interview. Welcome to 2026! Now that

Ottimale EM are heading into their second VFC season in 2026 — and team principal Roy Seifert  is staying true to his approach: keep things calm, tailor the car as well as possible to the drivers, and further professionalise the teamwork behind the scenes. After a debut year in which Ottimale EM scored points in almost every race, the next step is to build on that solid foundation.

After a season with Falcon Simracing, Jan Wiegels  returns to Horizon Motorsport  and once again takes over the role of team principal — a decision that was made internally at very short notice. At the same time, Fabian Szyrzik  is making his comeback after a break and will race for Horizon BHR  in 2026. In this interview, both talk about the background, expectations, and what they hope to achieve this season. Hello Jan, After a season at Falcon, you’re returning to your form

Seawolf NetRace Motorsport have long been a familiar name in endurance racing — but in 2026, the team is taking on a new challenge by entering VFC. Team owner Björn Wahlmeier  explains the motivation behind expanding into formula racing, while team principal Louis Röhn  sets out ambitious targets. A well-known name also returns to the grid: Alex Woitala  is back as a full-time driver, bringing his own story and clear expectations for the season. Hi Björn! A warm welcome to th
