Our Team
Welcome to the Audi F1 Project.
Audi will be competing in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship from 2026.
The new team has two locations. Audi's Motorsport Competence Center in Neuburg (Germany) is considered one of the most modern of its kind in Europe. The Sauber Group's Formula 1 factory in Hinwil (Switzerland) is known for its innovative technologies and passion for racing. The Power Unit comes from Neuburg, while Hinwil is responsible for the development of the chassis and race operations. The planned takeover by AUDI AG turns two teams into a factory team – and you can be part of it.
What you need? The mindset of an athlete. If you are someone for whom giving up isn’t an option and limits are just something to be overcome, you can bring Vorsprung durch Technik to Formula 1 with us. Become part of this unique project and make motorsport history.
The position for the Audi F1 Project is at Audi Formula Racing GmbH in Neuburg (Germany).

Through intensive collaboration, we ensure transparency to achieve project goals and early identification of project risks. In addition to high self-expectations, communication readiness, and team performance, we also prioritize enjoyment at work! Due to the interdependence of many different topics in our area of responsibility, close cooperation and a high degree of openness are prerequisites for our successful work.
