Fun fact: Nico Hülkenberg is about to become the first ever driver to race for Haas, and continue his F1 career by getting a race seat in another team afterwards.

Cheered for him in the past until his weird Covid comments

It would be amazing to see him land a podium or a win after the rollercoaster career with HAAS.

Definitely! But I doubt the Sauber will be any good this year… The switch to Audi won’t work like a miracle from day 1 either

Especially since they are already owned by Audi since January 2025

That’s true, but the technical part of this marriage will hit the road from 2026

I think it would be a mistake to consider their 2024 and 2025 outputs as “not Audi”… for all practical purposes it is the same company and team.

But of course their main focus has been the 2026 project and there hopefully will be a successful car and engine come 2026
