About this listen

Audi’s readiness for its Formula 1 debut in 2026 is the focus of the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast. Scott Mitchell-Malm attended Audi’s Munich event on Wednesday and joins Edd Straw to tell listeners all about it.


The progress with the power unit and the plans for testing are discussed, along with explaining why hopes are realistic, but high, for its performance level. We then hear Scott’s report from on site, which includes chats with F1 TV duo Chris Medland and Lawrence Barretto to bring you a flavour of the event.


Finally, Audi’s planned timeline for success and the chances of it delivering on that is weighed up in the context of the Sauber’s team’s improvements over the past year.


This episode also features a special segment looking at Shell's innovation partnership with Ferrari. Learn more about race fuel via the Shell Motorsports Website and follow @shellmotorsport on Instagram
