GP von Miami 2026: Rückschläge im Sprint, Reaktion im Qualifying.

Audi Revolut F1® Team erlebt einen anspruchsvollen Samstag mit technischen Ausfällen im Sprint und eingeschränkter Vorbereitung im Qualifying. Die Ausgangslage für das Rennen bleibt offen.

Fokus neu ausgerichtet

Der Samstag unterbrach den geplanten Ablauf früh. Nico Hülkenberg konnte den Sprint nach einem technischen Problem in der Installationsrunde nicht aufnehmen. Parallel dazu nutzte Gabriel die Startphase konsequent und kam als Elfter ins Ziel, verlor das Ergebnis jedoch durch eine nachträgliche Disqualifikation.

Zwischen den Sessions verschob sich der Fokus auf die Einsatzfähigkeit beider Rennwagen. An Hülkenbergs Fahrzeug wurden Power Unit und Getriebe gewechselt. Die Crew stellte das Paket rechtzeitig bereit, wodurch eine strukturierte Qualifying-Session möglich wurde. Mit Rang elf verpasste er Q3 knapp und sicherte eine Ausgangsposition im direkten Umfeld der Punkte.

Bei Gabriel verzögerte ein Getriebewechsel die Vorbereitung. Das Team brachte den Rennwagen in den letzten Minuten auf die Strecke, bevor ein Bremsproblem die entscheidenden Runden begrenzte. Startplatz 22 ergibt sich aus dieser Abfolge, nicht aus der grundsätzlichen Pace.

Der Tag verlangte schnelle Entscheidungen und saubere Abläufe unter Druck. Diese Basis trägt in den Sonntag. Audi Revolut F1® Team richtet den Blick nach vorn – mit klarer Priorität auf Umsetzung und der Möglichkeit, im Rennen Positionen zu gewinnen.

“A very challenging day for us from start to finish."

"We had an issue on Nico’s car before the sprint which ultimately led to a leak and fire on the way to the grid, meaning he couldn’t start. On the other side, Gabriel made a strong start and drove well, but a technical infringement unfortunately resulted in a disqualification."

"Between sessions we then faced a gearbox issue on his car, and despite a huge effort from the crew to get him back out, a brake problem forced him to stop on track in qualifying."

“The positive is Nico’s recovery, a very strong performance to take P11 and just miss out on Q3. More importantly, both crews showed real grit, determination and teamwork under pressure, which is exactly what we need at this stage of the project. We now have to regroup, learn from today, and make sure we maximise every opportunity that comes our way tomorrow.”

“First of all, a big thanks to the mechanics - they did a great job turning the car around after the Sprint and getting it back out there."

"It was a big effort in a short amount of time, so full credit to them. From my side, I think we got the maximum out of the session today. The gap to the cars ahead was quite clear, so realistically there wasn’t much more on the table."

"The car felt consistent with yesterday, which was important given we didn’t have time for the usual checks after the repairs. Now it’s about focusing on tomorrow and seeing what we can do in the race.”

"A bit of a tough day with an unfortunate disqualification in the Sprint."

"It felt like I had settled into a pace I was comfortable with, but the cars ahead were also quite strong. Before the Qualifying session, we had to make some changes to the car, but obviously didn't have a lot of time."

"The team did a tremendous job to get the car back out there, but when things have to be rushed like this and you don’t have time to fully check everything, it’s always going to be tough. We tried our best, but had too many problems on the lap and had to stop the car. It’s a shame, but it’s a new day tomorrow."
