Audi Formula 1 Team has signed Revolut as its title sponsor ahead of its 2026 debut on the F1 grid. The long-term deal brings together Audi’s racing plans and Revolut’s push to grow its global presence through big-name sports partnerships. As Audi takes over the Sauber team next year, this move marks a fresh chapter for both companies. But this partnership isn’t just about logos on cars and uniforms. Revolut will be involved in the team’s day-to-day financial operations and help create new ways for fans to connect with the team. It’s Revolut’s first step into Formula 1, and it replaces Sauber’s current sponsors, Stake and Kick, as the team transitions under Audi’s leadership.

'From 2026, Revolut’s digital-first solutions will power key areas of our operations while also redefining how fans and communities engage with our team – delivering a seamless and engaging experience on and off the track.'

'As Revolut continues to challenge the status quo in global finance, the future Audi F1 Team is set to do the same in motorsport. With a shared outlook, global ambition and relentless drive for progress, this partnership will define what’s possible in Formula 1.'
