The German manufacturer’s first Formula 1 teamwear since rebranding Sauber features a monochrome adidas design with subtle red accents
Audi has revealed its official 2026 Formula 1 team kit, the first kit since the German marque took over the Sauber team.
Audi will join the grid for the 2026 season following the rebranding of Sauber. With Revolut as a title partner and adidas as its apparel partner, it's brought a monochromatic colour scheme to its team kit.
"We are excited to officially mark the start of our journey with Audi Revolut Formula 1 Team, through a full teamwear collection which features adidas’ signature design and best in class technology at the forefront," Michael Batz, motorsport category GM at adidas said in a press release.
"Expertly crafted for the team to introduce themselves to the grid with style, each piece embodies the power, strength, and design of the car to meet the overall build up to and race-day demands. We can’t wait to see it in the paddock and stands across upcoming race weekends!”
The design will feature monochromatic base colours with subtle red accenting, mirroring the branding of the marque's road cars. Drivers Nico Hulkenberg and Gabriel Bortoleto will wear collarless jerseys with three stripes on the shoulders, as well as red line highlights on the sleeves and inner neckline.
Mechanics will wear clothing based on utility black, charcoal, and graphite colourways while engineers will wear close-to-the-body cut tees with oversized puffers and jackets.
Footwear comes in the shape of bespoke ADIZERO EVO SL shoes, also featuring a red and grey colour palette.

"The first time representing two leading icons on the track," Hulkenberg said. "Wearing the three stripes next to the four rings is a huge moment, and I'm excited to put on the jersey that has been built with precision and driven forward by adidas’ highest level of technical detailing – meaning it delivers style, functionality and hopefully a lot of speed."
"Working with adidas is an incredible opportunity for our team," Bortoleto added. "In a sport fueled by constant advancement and innovation, having the best in the game designing pieces for athletes, to meet their needs to perform at the top, is incredible. Knowing our kit has been crafted with careful thought and tailored to what we require, makes that first moment that I get to wear it, alongside my team, in front of our fans, even more special."
The full teamwear collection will be officially revealed in Berlin on 20 January at the team's launch event.
