Shape the Future of Motorsport with Audi F1 Project
Welcome to the Audi F1 Project. We are a new team in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship, starting from 2026.
Audi's Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg (Germany) and the Sauber Group's Formula 1 factory in Hinwil (Switzerland) are our two locations.
