Volkswagen-owned brands Audi and Porsche are joining other big names on the grid in 2026, most likely as engine suppliers.
Volkswagen’s Chief executive Herbert Diess confirmed the german-auto maker will enter the highest level of international motor racing.
After months of speculation, and division amongst the board, the two brands will cement their names on the championship board.
The decision comes after Formula One declared new engine regulations planned for 2026, which makes it a strategic time to enter the competition.
The changes are set to include an increase in the electric output of power units and the use of sustainable fuels.
The team that each brand’s engines will power hasn’t been confirmed yet but some predict Porsche will team up with Red Bull and Audi with McClaren.

So far, Ferrari is leading the season, with Red Bull trailing behind by 27 points. The Formula One community is now headed to Miami for race day on Sunday May 8.
Just days before the Miami Grand Prix kicks off McClaren’s Lando Norris put Basketballing superstar Jimmy Butler in the hot seat.
