In 2026, Porsche planned to return to Formula 1 as a power plant supplier in an alliance with Red Bull Racing, but negotiations with the championship team were unsuccessful. There were rumors that the German company decided to withdraw from Formula 1 participation, but in a recent interview, Porsche sports director Thomas Laudenbach confirmed that the investigation into possible options continues.
Thomas Laudenbach: “The collaboration with Red Bull did not materialize, but this does not mean at all that Formula 1 is no longer interesting for our company. It is important for us to find the right partner. If this does not work, it is better not to participate.
In any case, Formula 1 is very attractive. That is why we have extended the contract with the championship organizers for eight years to ensure that the Porsche Supercup series continues to support Formula 1 races.”
