ABP Live F1 Pit Stop:The sound of a Formula 1 engine is set to echo through National Capital Region once again. Red Bull Moto Jam 2026 is bringing the pinnacle of motorsports back to the streets of Greater Noida on March 1st.
Headlining this massive event at India Expo Centre is F1’s newest star and “generational talent,” Arvid Lindblad, marking the first time F1 machinery has performed in the region since the Indian Grand Prix era.
The Return of F1 to Indian Soil
While the global F1 calendar prepares for the season opener in Australia, India gets an exclusive preview. Arvid Lindblad will pilot a VCARB-branded F1 car – specifically the legendary V8-powered RB8 that won the Indian Grand Prix in 2012, bringing high-pitched scream of Formula 1 back to its spiritual Indian home.
This showrun is a symbolic “homecoming” for the 18-year-old British-Indian driver just one week before his official race debut in Melbourne.
Arvid Lindblad: The New Face of Indian Racing
Lindblad is carving out a historic path as the third driver of Indian origin to reach Formula 1, following Narain Karthikeyan and Karun Chandhok. With roots in Bihar and Punjab, Arvid’s connection to Delhi is deeply personal; it’s the city where his grandparents met and fell in love.
“Doing my first showrun as a Formula 1 driver in India, where my family is from, will be very special,” Lindblad shared. His helmet design, featuring the Indian flag alongside the British and Swedish flags, serves as a constant reminder of his multicultural identity.
