Key visual update coming for Supercars in 2026
Larger driver competition windscreen numbers introduced
Number, driver surname moved on windscreen
A key visual update is coming for Supercars in 2026, with larger windscreen numbers introduced.
From Round 1 in Sydney, the size of the driver competition number on the windscreen of all Supercars has been increased, and moved.
The vinyl competition number will be increased in size for better visibility to fans and officials, and will be moved next to the LED display.
The number has been increased by 65mm in height, from 80mm in 2025 to 145mm in 2026.
The driver surname, meanwhile, will move next to the competition number and across the rear vision mirror section of the windscreen, to ensure driver visibility is not compromised.
Previously, the number was across the rear vision mirror section of the windscreen, with the surname located near the LED display. LED displays were introduced in 2023.
The first look of the windscreen markings update appears on the 2026 Shell V-Power Ford Mustang, which was unveiled on Sunday.
Fans can see the new-look visual in action at the season-opening DUNLOP Sydney 500 on February 20-22. Tickets are on sale now.
