How has Brembo established itself as Formula 1's go-to brake supplier with relationships with all 11 teams?
๐ The Core Development
The Brembo Group supplies all 11 teams with brake calipers in 2026, while also providing complete braking systems to selected teams.
That's been built up over 50 years in the championship and has included forming close relationships with some of F1's best ever drivers including Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher. In fact, a Brembo caliper philosophy favoured by Schumacher has made a comeback in 2026.
๐ Background & Sector Context
"I think mainly for the product that we do, because we are in the top-level championships, F1, MotoGP," Brembo's F1 engineer Andrea Dellavedova told The Race.
"The product itself is a very good product. All the calipers, the discs, pads, master cylinder, we are now also doing brake-by-wire. They are very good products, they are reliable and very high performance.
๐ Industry & Real-World Impact
"The second topic is that the kind of assistance that we provide to our customers is very high, because we don't design and make the caliper, for example, sell it and then that's it. We continuously ask for feedback from the customer. We continuously try to develop the product in the way that the customer wants.
