Over more than 75 years of Formula 1, there have been some iconic cars which have become huge fan favourites.

Sometimes that is because they have been successful and are associated with certain drivers, sometimes it is purely down to aesthetics – or quite often it is a combination of both.

Spanning the 1950s to 2025, we have drawn up a shortlist which incorporate evocative names from F1 past and present: Maserati, Ferrari, Lotus, Brabham, McLaren, Mercedes, Jordan, Renault and Red Bull.

We have mostly kept the list to no more than one car per team, although we have made an exception for Ferrari and Lotus – given their longevity and the memorable cars they have produced.

Have a look over our selection below and then choose your favourite…
