End of Day Audi Revolut F1® Team at the Canada Grand Prix 2026
23. Mai 2026

Schritt für Schritt nach vorne.

Audi Revolut F1® Team festigt seine Position im Feld und startet von P11 und P13 in den Großen Preis von Kanada.

Balance weiter verbessert.

Der Samstag in Montréal verlangte erneut Präzision über zwei Sessions hinweg. Im Sprint und im anschließenden Qualifying bewegte sich das Feld innerhalb minimaler Abstände, wodurch jede Runde unmittelbaren Einfluss auf die Startposition hatte. Beide Rennwagen lieferten stabile Qualifying-Sessions. Nico Hülkenberg verpasste den Einzug in Q3 knapp und sicherte sich Startplatz elf, während Gabriel Bortoleto mit Rang 13 eine weitere geschlossene Leistung zeigte. Die Abstände blieben über das gesamte Feld hinweg eng, mit mehreren Positionen innerhalb weniger Zehntel.

Parallel dazu setzte das Team die Arbeit am Rennwagen fort. Balance und Fahrbarkeit wurden über den Tag hinweg weiter verbessert, wodurch sich eine stabilere Grundlage für längere Stints ergibt.

Mit Blick auf das Rennen verschiebt sich der Fokus auf Umsetzung und Strategie. Kühlere Bedingungen und mögliche Niederschläge könnten den Rennverlauf beeinflussen und zusätzliche Optionen eröffnen. Audi Revolut F1® Team geht mit klarer Ausgangslage ins Rennen, mit dem Ziel, die vorhandene Pace in Punkte umzusetzen.

“Qualifying unfolded largely as expected."

“With both drivers completing good sessions and the overall result reflecting our current level of competitiveness. While it is naturally frustrating to see Nico finish P11 once again, it also underlines how close we are to consistently fighting for Q3 positions."

Allen McNish, Racing Director at the Audi Revolut F1® Team holding a speech at the Canada Grand Prix 2026

Allan McNish

"The margins remain extremely tight, and with continued development, we are confident we can make that next step more regularly. Looking ahead to tomorrow, the pace we demonstrated in the Sprint gives us encouragement for the race. "

Allan McNish

"The biggest unknown will be the weather conditions, with significantly cooler temperatures and the possibility of rain expected. As none of the teams have yet run these cars in wet conditions, it could create a very unpredictable scenario and add another strategic dimension to the race."

“Coming up just short of Q3 once again is obviously frustrating..."

“... especially with margins this small, but overall, I’m pretty pleased with the session. I think we extracted everything that was there today."

Nico Hülkenberg

“Around this track, with the low grip levels, you’re constantly fighting the balance and hanging onto the car, so it wasn’t easy out there. Looking at the bigger picture, it’s been a decent result considering how the weekend started for us."

Nico Hülkenberg

The main topic has really been the drivability and power unit side, and this circuit exposes those areas quite a lot. Nevertheless, we managed to get the car into a much better window for qualifying and the balance felt reasonably good."

Nico Hülkenberg

“There’s still work to do, but tomorrow is another opportunity, especially if conditions change, and we’ll aim to make the most of it.”

“Today hasn’t been the cleanest qualifying..."

“ I would say I felt a little bit more comfortable in the car yesterday. Either way, I don’t think we could have done much more than this with what we currently have."

"Nico did a very good lap, on the other hand, and I reckon that's where we are standing in terms of pace. Tomorrow could be an interesting one, especially looking at the weather forecast."

Gabriel Bortoleto

"I haven’t driven this new generation of cars in the wet yet, so let’s see what’s going to happen. We’re still struggling with the starts, as we saw earlier today in the Sprint, but if we manage to get that right, we could build something during the race.”
