Real teams are now in RaceLivery Studio!
You could already design a MyTeam livery and export it as a mod. Now you can put that design on any of the eleven 2026 team slots instead.
What actually goes in the slot is the MyTeam (FOM) chassis wearing the team's name — not the team's own chassis. That was a deliberate choice, and here is the reasoning, because I think it's the interesting part.
Every team's car has its own UV layout, and they are not comparable. Reading them out of the game's own archives: the body paints from 4096² on the Red Bull, 2048² on the Ferrari, 1024² on the Williams, and 256² on the Haas — the whole car, at 256 pixels square. Measured against how much bodywork each atlas has to cover, a sponsor logo on the 2026 Haas gets about 45 texels per metre where the Red Bull gets 1427. Thirty times. Several cars also read the same texels from two places, so a logo on the sidepod prints again on the far flank, mirrored.
You can fix that per car — I did, for four of them, rebuilding their atlas layouts by hand over a week. But there is a harder problem underneath: a design drawn for one chassis does not cover another. Laying a MyTeam livery over a real chassis leaves large areas bare, and the cars whose shape diverges most are exactly the ones people most want to dress. I built that route, tried it in the game, and threw it away.
So the MyTeam car goes into the slot whole. The livery arrives exactly as it left the editor — nothing stretched, nothing approximated, no per-car guesswork.
How the mod is built, since it matters for stability: it does not replace the team's vehicle archive. It overrides two layer resources inside a shader package the game already loads, and ships a material set of its own. The team's handling, damage model, cameras, mirrors and VFX all stay stock, and your own MyTeam car keeps the livery you painted for it — the two never share a texture.
- Installs through Simplified Launcher like any other mod
- Each team keeps a separate design
Real chassis support isn't off the table, but it isn't close either, and I'd rather say so than imply otherwise.
Thanks to Team Simplified — the Launcher and the SERPs base files are what make any of this installable, and they answered a lot of questions about how the game's car files fit together while this was being built. Go support their work.
