Ferrari tops Sportico F1 team valuations

F1: Ferrari still the priciest team on the grid at $8.2bn

Results on track, value off it

Ferrari have not won a constructors’ championship since 2008. Their drivers sit fourth and fifth in the 2026 standings, Lewis Hamilton ahead of Charles Leclerc. None of that has dented the price tag. In its annual Formula 1 valuations, released today, Sportico puts the Scuderia at $8.2 billion, the highest figure on the grid and a 28% rise on its 2025 estimate.

The gap to the team that actually dominated this season is not huge. Mercedes come second at $7.75 billion, up 32%. Kimi Antonelli, 20, has already sealed the drivers’ title for the Silver Arrows, and George Russell is third in the standings, so Mercedes hold two of the top three places. On the stopwatch they are the reference. On the balance sheet, Ferrari’s 16 constructors’ crowns and a brand that sells well beyond motorsport still count for more.

The full order, from Maranello to Cadillac

McLaren are third at $6.3 billion after a 33% jump, with Red Bull fourth at $5.6 billion (up 30%). Aston Martin complete the top five at $4.15 billion, and their 38% increase is the steepest of the leading group. Below them, Alpine ($3.28 billion), Williams ($3.24 billion), Racing Bulls ($3.05 billion), Audi ($3 billion) and Haas ($2.8 billion) are packed into a band of less than half a billion dollars. Newcomer Cadillac props up the 11-team list at $2.7 billion.

That last number tells its own story. A team in its first season is already valued within $100 million of Haas, who have been on the grid since 2016.

Faster growth than the NFL

Across the paddock, Sportico has F1 teams gaining 33% on average over the past year. That beats the NFL (30%), the NBA (28%), the NHL (16%) and MLB (12%), and it leaves international football clubs, up 11% on average, well behind.

The average F1 team is now worth $4.55 billion. Only NFL franchises ($9.34 billion) and NBA teams ($6.64 billion) carry a higher average. Put another way, an F1 team now outvalues the average NHL or MLB franchise, and the curve is still pointing up.
