Audi Set to Revolutionize F1: 2026 Car Launch in Berlin!
In a stunning move that’s sending shockwaves through the Formula 1 world, Audi is gearing up to unveil its much-anticipated 2026 race car! Mark your calendars for Tuesday, January 20, as the Audi Revolut F1 team prepares for a groundbreaking launch event in the heart of Berlin. This isn’t just another car reveal; it marks Audi’s bold entry as both a power unit manufacturer and a full-fledged racing team, having taken the reins from the Sauber team.
Under the experienced leadership of team principal Jonathan Wheatley, the Audi outfit will retain key personnel from the previous Sauber setup, including talented drivers Gabriel Bortoleto and veteran Nico Hulkenberg. Fans are buzzing with excitement as Audi becomes the fourth team to showcase its 2026 car design, following in the footsteps of Red Bull, Racing Bulls, and Haas. This launch event promises not only a glimpse of the sleek new design but also a peek into Audi’s ambitious vision for the upcoming season.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there! After the grand reveal on January 20, a select group of fans and media will get an exclusive closer look at the car and its striking livery during a special event on Wednesday, January 21.
So, when exactly can you catch the action? The Berlin launch kicks off at 7 PM local time (that’s 6 PM GMT), and fans can expect to be dazzled by the full 2026 car design. Earlier this month, Audi made headlines by being the first team to hit the track with their 2026 car during a promotional filming day at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, although tantalizingly few images were released from that session.
For those eager F1 enthusiasts wanting to tune in, the live stream of Audi’s season launch will be available on the official Audi F1 website and their YouTube channel. Make sure to check back to catch all the electrifying moments as they unfold!
