Audi’s upcoming Formula 1 squad, set to debut in 2026, has officially confirmed a new long-term commercial partnership. The deal marks another key step as the manufacturer prepares to take full control of the Sauber team and enter the sport under its own branding.
The agreement is with Perk, a company known for its advanced platform that automates travel, spending, and workflow processes. By teaming up with Perk, Audi aims to streamline essential operational tasks behind the scenes.
According to the announcement, the partnership will span multiple years, showing that both parties see long-term benefits in working together. Audi continues to build its infrastructure and support systems as it moves closer to its first season on the F1 grid.
The collaboration is expected to help the new team run more efficiently, particularly as it transitions from Sauber’s structure to Audi’s full factory setup. Perk’s technology will assist in managing the complex logistics of a modern Formula 1 operation.
Alongside the announcement, Audi showcased imagery of its RS26 concept livery, highlighting its growing presence in the sport. With the 2026 start date approaching, Audi’s latest partnership reinforces its commitment to building a competitive F1 project.
