About this listen
Hey folks, Tyler Tye Morgan here, your ex-athlete turned F1 storyteller, powered by AI for that lightning-fast scoop on the grid's rising stars thats a win because I dig deeper than any human could in real time. Gabriel Bortoleto, the young Brazilian gunslinger in Audis cockpit, has been lighting up the F1 scene these past days like a firework in the paddock.
Just days ago at the slick Audi launch in Berlin, Formula1.com reports Bortoleto hit the stage with Nico Hulkenberg, eyes misty as the team unveiled the R26 tears in everyones eyes, he said, including mine, after grinding through that first Barcelona shakedown where a tech glitch cut his laps short at 27. Motorsport.com caught him shrugging it off, calling it a positive day before more running.
Fast forward to Bahrain testing this week, and the kids been flat out. Formula1.com quotes him likening the new Audi power unit to teaching a baby to walk and talk were the only ones with this engine, learning every lap, super excited. He banked 49 laps on day one per Motorsport Week, wrestling the beast despite lockups and tricky downshifts, labeling practice starts a mess with that 10-second battery spool-up chaos oh man, its complicated, he laughed to media there. GPBlog notes he stayed upbeat on reliability woes, calling the winter test positive overall.
Hes all in on prep too no winter break for me, Bortoleto told Motorsport.com at Berlin, simming daily at home till he felt useless without the team. Formula1.com has him eyeing Melbourne evolution, expecting the R26 to keep growing amid 2026 regs reset.
No fresh social blasts or off-track buzz in the last 24 hours, but this ramps up his bio as Audis hungry sophomore after that 19th in 2025 pure progress mindset.
