Porsche and Audi will enter Formula One, according to the boss of their parent company Volkswagen. Volkswagen have been weighing up the possibility of entering F1 for several years and were included in discussions over the current engine rules at the beginning of the last decade. In the end they decided against entering, only for Porsche Motorsport vice-president Fritz Enzinger to reveal last year that it was being considered again as long as new engine rules suited them. Once F1’s new engine rules – which will see them run on fully sustainable fuels and make electric power a greater proportion over the overall output – were confirmed last month, the VW board approved the idea of Porsche and Audi entering F1.
