After the announcement that the Sauber team will become the basis for Audi’s entry into Formula 1, they inevitably started talking about the composition. The Germans write that Mick Schumacher is the best option, the Finns say the experienced Valtteri Bottas will immediately let the team fight for victories.
Team boss Frederic Vasseur thinks it is too early to talk about the selection for 2026…
Frederic Wasser: “It is not worth talking about the possible composition of the team in 2026. There are many years ahead of that. We have a youth academy, we educate young people, but those who race in karting today cannot make their debut in Formula 1 until 2030 or 2032.
Now we have Valtteri, we have Guanyu, Theo Purscher is on the way. We have a lot of time to find the optimal composition. At the moment almost no one has a contract that covers the 2026 season, so the team has a lot of choice.”
