Audi has unveiled plans for a new Formula 1® campus located in Hinwil, Switzerland, marking a significant step in expanding their presence within the sport. This development reflects Audi Revolut Formula 1® Team’s commitment to strengthening its infrastructure and long-term ambitions in Formula 1®.
The new campus is situated less than one kilometre from the current Hinwil base on Zurichstrasse. Partial operations began during the summer of 2026, with the full facility expected to be completed by 2030. Meanwhile, the existing Wildbachstrasse site will continue to serve as the manufacturing hub and house the wind tunnel facility. Additionally, the development and production of Formula 1® power units will remain in Neuburg, Germany, while the technical centre in Bicester, UK, will also be retained.
Audi’s takeover of the Sauber team and factory at the start of the 2026 season laid the foundation for this expansion. The new campus is designed to embody the culture and ambitions of the Audi Revolut Formula 1® Team, aiming to create an environment that fosters collaboration and innovation. Team Principal Mattia Binotto highlighted the importance of the facility in attracting and retaining world-class talent, which is critical for the team’s progress in the highly competitive Formula 1® landscape.
Currently sitting eighth in the 2026 teams’ standings, Audi Revolut is focusing on improving its performance as the new facilities become fully operational. The expansion represents a strategic investment in infrastructure that supports both technical development and team growth. By maintaining key operations across Hinwil, Neuburg, and Bicester, Audi is balancing its resources to enhance competitiveness while building a cohesive team environment.
The Hinwil campus project is a clear indication of Audi’s long-term commitment to Formula 1®. It not only provides modern facilities but also strengthens the team’s ties to the local community, with Binotto expressing pride in establishing the team’s future base in Hinwil and gratitude towards the local municipality for their support.
As Audi Revolut continues to develop its presence in the championship, the new campus will play a central role in shaping the team’s capabilities. The facility is intended to support ongoing innovation and foster a collaborative atmosphere that aligns with the team’s goals within the sport.
