“Audi’s launch marks the start of a long-term plan to compete at the top level.”
Berlin, Germany — Audi has revealed its 2026 Formula 1 car ahead of its first full season in the sport. The car features a silver, black, and red livery with Revolut as the main sponsor.
Drivers Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto will lead the team. Hulkenberg brings experience, while Bortoleto is a young talent.
Manager Jonathan Wheatley said the launch marks the start of Audi’s plan to compete at the top level. The team has already tested the car on track and gathered important data.
The 2026 car follows new hybrid rules, with half of its power coming from electric energy. Audi hopes the new design and engine will give them a strong start.
The season begins in March at the Australian Grand Prix, where Audi will make its competitive debut in Formula 1.
