Audi’s Formula 1 dreams take a decisive step forward with the addition of Nico Hülkenberg as the first driver for their factory team. Hülkenberg’s extensive experience in over 200 F1 races makes him a perfect choice as Audi gears up for their eagerly awaited entry into the Formula 1 world. Andreas Seidl, CEO of the future Audi F1 factory team, highlights Hülkenberg’s speed, experience, and collaborative approach as key factors in Audi’s Formula 1 project. With Hülkenberg onboard, Audi aims to use his expertise to navigate the developmental phase leading up to their debut in 2026.
For Hülkenberg, the opportunity to represent Audi in Formula 1 is an example of the brand’s dedication and passion to compete alongside other industry giants. As a German manufacturer with a rich racing heritage, Audi’s journey into F1 presents an opportunity for Hülkenberg to showcase his talents on a global stage. The selection of Hülkenberg follows Audi’s strategic roadmap, which includes the full acquisition of Sauber and the appointment of Oliver Hoffmann as General Representative.
