Audi Revolut F1 Team made a positive step forward as the Miami Grand Prix sprint weekend got underway, overcoming a difficult Free Practice session to improve performance ahead of Sprint Qualifying. In a tightly contested midfield, both drivers narrowly missed out on SQ3, underlining the fine margins on a demanding sprint Friday. Encouragingly, the team reacted well between sessions to address key areas and build a better understanding of the car in the high-temperature conditions at the Miami International Autodrome. With a clean Sprint race the priority, there remains everything to play for across the weekend, and the team will be pushing to make up places while continuing to build momentum into Qualifying and Sunday’s Grand Prix.

Audi Revolut F1 Team returns to action in Miami for the fourth round of the Championship, following a five-weeks break from racing. The time away from competition was a busy one, with work proceeding in Hinwil, Neuburg and Bicester, as well as a reorganisation of the team’s trackside leadership: Miami will be the first race with Allan McNish in his new position as Racing Director of Audi Revolut F1 Team.

​Audi Revolut F1 Team has today confirmed the appointment of Allan McNish as Racing Director, marking a key step in the continued development of its Formula One project.

Hinwil, April 23, 2026 – Audi Revolut F1 Team and adidas today unveil a limited-edition Miami Collection, marking the first race-specific expression of their partnership.

Hinwil, April 21, 2026 – Audi Revolut F1 Team marks the second chapter of the team’s global off-track experience in Miami. Following on from a highly successful debut in Melbourne, the team is set to bring Formula 1 closer to fans and communities once again, creating a dedicated presence in the city throughout race week. With activities ranging from collaborations with iconic bakeries to DJ sessions and street art, fans will experience F1 in Miami in new ways.

Audi Development Programme drivers Emma Felbermayr and Freddie Slater enjoyed a busy and successful start to the season, with strong weekends across their respective campaigns. Slater, stepping up to Formula 3, secured his maiden podium in Melbourne, while Felbermayr – now in her second year in F1 Academy – claimed both a race win and a podium in Shanghai. With a prolonged break in the racing calendar ahead, both drivers will now focus on training and preparation to build on this early momentum when competition resumes later this spring.

Audi Revolut F1 Team finished just over one second away from a point as Nico Hulkenberg charged to P11 in a Japanese Grand Prix that delivered battles from lights to flag. The German recovered from 19th in the opening stages, and his fightback ended with him catching up the final point-scoring position, only for the laps to run out before an attack could be made. On the other side of the garage, Gabriel Bortoleto also had a busy afternoon, battling in the midfield but ultimately crossing the line in P13.

Audi Revolut F1 Team returned to Q3 with a positive performance in qualifying for the Japanese Grand Prix. The team carried its form from solid performances earlier in the weekend as Gabriel Bortoleto once again claimed a spot in the top ten, setting the ninth fastest time overall. Team-mate, Nico Hulkenberg, went close from joining Gabriel in the final segment of qualifying but missed the cut by a whisker, and will line up in 13th place on the grid. The result, paired with the good pace shown throughout the three practice sessions, gives confidence to the team ahead of what promises to be a tightly contested race here in Suzuka.

Audi Revolut F1 Team completed a busy day of practice in Suzuka, with the team competing for places near the front of the midfield again. In the first two on-track sessions for this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix, Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto worked through the testing programme, working to find the ideal setup to tackle the challenging Suzuka track: despite a technical issue, which forced a precautionary gearbox change and sidelined Gabriel for part of FP2 before the team could get him back on track, the data collected from the two hours of action will inform the engineers; both trackside and back at base, as the team prepares for tomorrow’s Qualifying session.

Audi Revolut F1 Team heads to the iconic scenery of the Suzuka Circuit for the third race of the season, looking to build on the encouraging pace shown across the opening rounds and aiming to maximise its potential in the tightly fought midfield battle.
