The 45-year-old Spaniard confirmed his continuation next year and will once more partner Lance Stroll.
Alonso said: “I’m committed for the long term with this team and to helping us succeed. I truly believe in what we are building: we have strong leadership, incredible people, partners and facilities.”
While the calendar for next year is still taking shape due to the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict, teams have been busy negotiating with drivers ahead of the new campaign.
Nine of the 11 teams on the grid have finalised their line-ups for next season, at the time of writing, with only a few spots left on the grid for anyone wanting to break into Formula One.
Here is how the grid is shaping up.
Red Bull (Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar)
Isack Hadjar has extended his contract at Red Bull for another year, until the end of the 2027 season.
After huge speculation surrounding his future, Max Verstappen signed a contract in August to remain with Red Bull until 2030, the four-time champion reportedly being swayed by the prospect of his preferred V8 engines.
McLaren (Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri)
Reigning champion Lando Norris agreed in August to remain with McLaren, the only team he has represented since his 2019 debut, until at least 2030.
His Australian teammate Oscar Piastri signed a new multi-year contract extension before the 2025 season started, which will tie him down until the end of 2028.
Mercedes (Kimi Antonelli and George Russell)
Kimi Antonelli and George Russell have signed multi-year contracts with Mercedes and are expected to be with the German manufacturer until at least the end of 2027.
Antonelli is currently leading in the 2026 driver championship and with only nine races left, he could become the youngest driver, at 20-years-old, to ever win a world championship.

Ferrari (Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc)
Lewis Hamilton is completing his second year at Ferrari after making his decision to leave Mercedes at the end of 2024.
He has a multi-year contract with Ferrari and will at least stay with the team until 2027, and will be joined by Charles Leclerc, who most recently signed an extension in June for an unknown length of time.
Alpine (Pierre Gasly and Franco Colapinto)
Alpine's two 2026 drivers are under contract for another year, and the team announced in August they would both be continuing.
It has been reported that Gasly has a deal through to the end of 2028, while Colapinto is out of contract at the end of next year.
Aston Martin (Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll)
Aston Martin has confirmed an unchanged driver line-up for 2027 with Fernando Alonso joining Lance Stroll for another season with the team.
Racing Bulls (TBC)
The second Red Bull team has not confirmed its line-up for 2027 but is likely to retain current drivers Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad, according to reports.
Yuki Tsunoda drove for the team while Lawson was drafted into Red Bull to replace Hadjar when the French driver had to pull out with a wrist injury for three rounds.
Cadillac (Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas)
The US team will continue with its experienced line-up in 2027 after its first season back in Formula 1.
Both Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas signed multi-year deals ahead of the 2026 campaign.
Williams (Alexander Albon and Carlos Sainz Jr)
Alexander Albon and Carlos Sainz have signed on for another year with Williams.
Thai driver Albon has a deal in place through to the end of 2027, while the Spaniard has another year beyond that.
Audi (Nico Hülkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto)
After its first season back as a full manufacturer, Audi is set to retain its line-up of drivers for 2027.
There are no reported end dates for either driver's contract but they will both be on the grid next year.
Haas (TBC)
According to reports, both Esteban Ocon and Oliver Bearman are out of contract at the end of 2026.
With Bearman set to remain, French driver Ocon looks more likely to move on from the sport, with Rafael Camara and Jack Doohan both being touted as his replacement.
