Preparations for Audi' s entry into Formula 1 are in full swing. It was announced at the end of April that Nico Hulkenberg will drive for Stake F1 Team from next year [i.e. Audi from 2026]. A second driver is still being sought, but other changes besides the drivers are already underway within the team. For example, Valtteri Bottas has a new engineer from this race weekend in Miami.
