2026 Audi Revolut F1 Team

Looks very conventional. Normal sidepod, double push-rod. Nothing that jumps out tbh.

Given how early they have got it on track, and I strongly suspect they are after a consistent reliable basis to build from, I don’t think that is a surprise.

Interesting sidepod upper profile. In the sparking image we can see that the bodywork is somewhat reflective, reflecting the paint line on the track surface.








Edited from @audif1 posts (below). Rear pushrod. Flat-faced wheel spokes.

Something that surprises me is how small the rear wing is for a circuit like Barcelona. This looks like a Spa or Monza spec wing. You would expect to see larger wings than before because there is no longer a penalty on the straights due to active aero.

The visually does look smaller. Hope this improves the racing

That’s the best picture I have seen yet, and yes they do seem to be heading in the right direction. Tricky to tell from that angle, but it appears to be a lot shorter than the current super tankers

That's not a photo. It's AI nonsense.

exactly. To me, looks like they've used the body of their unveiled concept of last year but with the mechanics and the chassis 2026. Maybe they will use this car for Barcelona tests but I'm sure that they will change a lot in that car for Bahrain tests.

I mean that photo in particular is an AI "enhancement" of captured frame of the poor quality video.
Of what little you can actually see about the car, it seems to be a legit 2026 car.

Dont think that means something as its no real testing

That is more or less the new maximal allowed rear wing size. And that make me think they will run this max rear wings at ~70% of all circuits.

Very interesting.

The car looks sharp in terms of pure looks. This bodes well for the new rulebook. Cant wait to see all of the cars back on track.
