Formula 1: Audi announces partnership with Sauber for 2026
Formula 1’s worst-kept secret has been officially confirmed: Audi will be teaming up with Sauber Motorsports to enter the sport in 2026, acquiring a – possibly majority stake – in Team Hineville by then.
The deal between the Ingolstadt-based company and the racing team from Heinville, Switzerland, had been rumored for months and was only tacitly confirmed at the end of August when Alfa Romeo announced that it would end the partnership with Sauber at the end of the 2023 season.
Audi officially announced its entry into Formula 1 on the first day of the Belgian GP at Spa. She hadn’t decided at the time which group she would work with, but now her plan was clear. Announcing Sauber Motorsports as a “strategic partner”, it was said that a percentage of the Swiss team would be bought by Audi.
Sauber Motorsports owner Finn Rausing has said he will remain involved but it is widely believed that Audi will take a majority stake in the Swiss team and of course have full management. But that’s something that has yet to be confirmed.
So the purchase rate isn’t known yet, but we do know that in 2026, Sauber will become Audi’s official works team. The team’s cars are built in Hineville, the engines at the Audi Formula Racing GmbH headquarters in Neuburg. The plant in Neuburg is already expanding rapidly, and around 120 people were employed in the design and development of Audi’s first engine in Formula 1.
As part of the deal, Rausing is said to have stipulated that no Hineville workers would be laid off. For the latter, it is obvious that this agreement is a guarantee of the team’s long-term survival, while Audi acquires in Sauber a leading factory with one of the most modern wind tunnels in F1 – with the ambition to invest in the expansion.
For the next three years, the Hineville team will have nothing to do with Audi. In 2023 it will still race as the Alfa Romeo F1, while the Sauber name will return to the grid in 2024 and 25 before possibly being lost forever. In all three years the team will continue to use Ferrari engines.
After the deal was announced, the team’s athletic director Fred Wasser said: “The partnership between Audi AG and Sauber Motorsport is a crucial step for our team on our way towards the front rows of the grid. It is the best choice going forward and we are absolutely confident that we can help Audi achieve the goals it has set for its F1 journey.”

David’s son Luca Villa makes his debut in La Liga FC Futures

The last name is not deceiving. The son of David Villa, who played as a forward for Sporting de Gijón, Zaragoza, Valencia, FC Barcelona, Atleti, Melbourne City, New York City and Vissel Kobe, has scoring in his blood. ‘Guahé’ only wore the red and white shirt for one season, but he left his mark on the fans. They won the historic league game 13-14 and were just short of qualifying for the Champions League. For Kouhaku fans who are currently excited about “Mini Guaju”, it was a year that didn’t really feel that way.

Although Luka is a forward, he prefers to drop to the flanks, as Spain’s No. 7 did at the World Cup, which his team won. In his case, he is left-handed, so he tends to the left side, but he also plays defense in the center. He has a sense of smell for goals, which is one of the traits a person is born with or not. He could hit from anywhere and dominated the aerial duel with powerful shots from outside the area. A few months ago, he had already said that he wanted to be like his father and Fernando Torres. It’s clear that Mattresses’ DNA runs through his veins.
In their debut in La Liga, FC Futures repeatedly missed their mark, pressed from high positions and were inside the playing area which ended in an own goal that led to a goal. The best is yet to come.
