VW eyes German drivers for 2026 F1 projects

Having confirmed this week that the VW board has approved separate F1 projects for 2026 for both Porsche and Audi, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess says he also wants a revival for Hockenheim or the Nurburgring. “I know of plans that we will have another grand prix in Germany, which should then stimulate Formula 1 in Germany again,” he told the Wolfsburger Allgemeine Zeitung newspaper. “But I believe that we can already succeed in Germany in terms of organising a Formula 1 race along these lines.”. What VW, Porsche and Audi may be able to control, however, is whether their Formula 1 projects will prioritise putting German drivers at the wheel.
