Technical Buyer

Our Team

Welcome to the Audi F1 Project.
Audi will be competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship from 2026. 
The new team has two locations. Audi's Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg (Germany) is considered one of the most modern of its kind in Europe. The Sauber Group's Formula 1 factory in Hinwil (Switzerland) is known for its innovative technologies and passion for racing.

The planned takeover by AUDI AG turns two teams into a factory team – and you can be part of it.
