Audi’s new CEO may well have arrive out and reaffirmed his motivation to their Formulation one entry in 2026, but ianhaycox is not convinced…
I’ll be surprised if we see Audi in F1 at all.
Why invest tens of millions on a new ICE when Audi clients will not even be in a position to get a new Audi with an ICE in most territories. It just does not make any feeling to me, for them to flounder all over at the again of the grid right until 2028 in all probability, with what probable advertising and marketing angle?
With the emergence of extra reasonably priced EVs, authorities purchasing incentives and weather disaster pressures, a few a long time is now a very long time in the car business.
I forecast in two years’ time, they will be again-monitoring. ianhaycox
