A glorified title sponsor with no involvement on the technical side, as much as I'm aware. So today's announcements pretty much confirm the Audi Sauber rumours. I have mixed feelings, but generally, I think it's a good chance for Sauber to make the next step. I'm not a fan of Audi, but they are no mugs and have a rich and successful racing history.

He's probably set for the Sauber seat in 2024 or 2025 at the latest, and technically, he could stay in F2 one more season, but he said he won't. Not many options for him in single seaters that would be an upgrade and let him develop further. Maybe Super Formula? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know, it's not rational I actually really liked him when he was leading Porsche, and yes, he's a very competent team principal who will do a great job, I'm sure. But these days whenever I hear him on TV during the race weekend it just annoys me. As I said, completely irrational Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy 12,601 Posted January 30, 2023 Moderator Share Posted January 30, 2023 Quote The Sauber Group is pleased to announce that, as per the plans outlined in October last year, Audi acquired a minority stake in the Sauber Group in January 2023. This is an important milestone on the way to Audi’s entry in Formula One, scheduled for 2026, for which the Sauber Group will be the German brand’s strategic partner.
