Overview
- Audi disclosed Thursday that work on a new campus at Zürichstrasse in Hinwil is under way and that the project will be finished in phases with final completion planned for 2030.
- The current Wildbachstrasse site will remain active during construction and will later be converted into a production centre that includes a wind tunnel for the team.
- Engine development and production will continue at Audi’s Neuburg facility and the technical outpost in Bicester will stay in place, preserving the company’s distributed F1 structure.
- Team chief Mattia Binotto framed the campus as a people-first investment designed to recruit and keep top engineers by offering closer collaboration, new workshops and larger workspace to raise on-track performance.
- The upgrade responds to long-standing space limits at the former Sauber base and follows Audi’s early competitive steps in 2026, a debut season that already produced points and now ties infrastructure growth to the team’s three-stage plan toward 2030 contention.
