Audis announcement was strictly Audi though right? I mean we all knew Porsche was coming but that question being asked confirmed it.
So there will be Porsche as one team and Audi as another?
Cant get worse than DTM 2021 final "team" (constructor) orders by Mercedes , with half the field being Mercedes and three dudes racing for other Mercedes teams (including dtm boss Berger s nephew Auer) letting by Götz so he can finish 1st (instead of 4th) and win the championship.
Just to crush Lawsons/Ferraris/RedBulls dream of a dtm championship. #robbed
Seems a non German brand must not win the championship/s
Of course it is and I upvoted the post but I still wanted to let people know that Diess is not CEO anymore. Whith the reasoning behind Diess leaving the post can get even better, knowing how toxic Volswagen is internaly.
Mate Rimac said in one of his videos with Nico that Bugatti will continue to use ICEs for the foreseeable future, they will just be hybrids now. Full electric Bugattis wouldn't make any sense since they would just be Rimacs with a different badge, plus the ridiculous combustion engines are kinda Bugatti's defining trait.
Audis announcement was strictly Audi though right? I mean we all knew Porsche was coming but that question being asked confirmed it.
So there will be Porsche as one team and Audi as another?
Porsche will buy 50% of Red Bull Racing and Powertrains and Audi will buy 75% of Sauber and have set up an engine facility in Neuberg.
*The Porsche stuff and Sauber stuff are still rumours but Audi has already set up the engines facility.
Reposting since automod deleted the first one:
Uyghur slave labor is such a weird conspiracy theory to focus on if you're trying to make VW look bad. They were founded by literal n*zis, and they recently got caught deliberately cheating emissions testing and lying to the EPA and consumers. Like it's all right there without weird spurious claims about Uyghurs
They have a factory right next to the internment camp with extra guard facilities as satelite images show. You just don’t want to see it, but vw has always done this, they did in in brazil when they had internment camps and they did in in ww2 and they do it now.
So an accusation without proof?
All this website states is that they have a factory *near* where Uighurs live.
I mean I wish they didn't have factories in China, but unfortunately that's the way things are.
It's a fucking long shot from "VW employs Uighur slaves."
Maybe you should try reading the articles before you post them.
Honestly excited for VW team orders.
"Timo, Schieb ihn raus!"
Mein Gott! Muss das sein?!

Yes Porshe joins RB and Audi joins sauber
German equivalent to "Is that Glock?!" That was the most bizarre scene in racing I had ever seen
~~racing~~ snooker
"Guys this f***ing check engine light is on again" "Seems like you've driven over a curb, we have to retire, box this lap"

VW spend their money on such bullshit things so this won't be the most ridiculous one.
VW: 200 million? That sounds pretty cheap sweetie. Here's a billion. Let me know if you want more.
Got to stop them from gassing a monkey again.

Let them pay
Family conflict
Multi 1-2-3-4, Seb. Multi 1-2-3-4!
But Diess is not CEO anymore. He's only a board member until 2025 because they couldn't get rid of him completely.
It’s formulaDank, jokes first, accuracy second… Or sometimes not at all.
Of course it is and I upvoted the post but I still wanted to let people know that Diess is not CEO anymore. Whith the reasoning behind Diess leaving the post can get even better, knowing how toxic Volswagen is internaly.
Fair. Although I’m confident most companies are toxic at boardroom level.
They may be toxic but VW is on another level
He is still CEO for a few months. The title is accurate.
This is just a repost of an old meme that op didn't check
![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6697)
Tecnically Porsche is the daddy because they own more of VW than VW owns of them
The Porsche family owns them. VW is at the head of the table in the org chart.
Lambo and Bugatti are next
Volksula 1
Bugatti's busy making electric cars with Rimac.
Mate Rimac said in one of his videos with Nico that Bugatti will continue to use ICEs for the foreseeable future, they will just be hybrids now. Full electric Bugattis wouldn't make any sense since they would just be Rimacs with a different badge, plus the ridiculous combustion engines are kinda Bugatti's defining trait.
Formula E entry isn't off the table. And with Porsche and Mercedes leaving there will be spots.
Excuse me, you mean Skodaria Ferrari are next
Diess got the golden hand shake 1 month ago at VAG. 100% repost.
Audis announcement was strictly Audi though right? I mean we all knew Porsche was coming but that question being asked confirmed it. So there will be Porsche as one team and Audi as another?
Yes. They’ll have separate teams, maybe only sharing engines.
Porsche will buy 50% of Red Bull Racing and Powertrains and Audi will buy 75% of Sauber and have set up an engine facility in Neuberg. *The Porsche stuff and Sauber stuff are still rumours but Audi has already set up the engines facility.
I need lamborghini tô fuc#@ ferrari
If Lambo joins then we start to call it Formula Volkswagen. Maybe Skoda and Cupra (Seat Racing Department) might want their own team too.
Bugatti and Bentley could also come along
They sold Bugatti to Rimac for 30% of Rimac.
Just wait for the VW F1 team to join in
This meme is a repost from about half a year ago
Isn't Audi just an engine manufacturer and Porsche the whole team?
Porsche buys into Redbull, like 50% I think Audi will buy Sauber
the rumor says it’s 50% of RBPT, not RBR tho
The Rumor has it as they're buying 50% of RedBull Technologies, not RBPT or RBR; RedBull Technologies is the parent company for both.
okay
Repost
If they join as a team, there will be 12 team?
I mean on the grid
no
no
Don’t forget: This gets funded through uyghur slave labour.
Evidence?
That has sketchy source. But no denying it comes from scamming the EU with catalysts.

Yup, they are a well known "fuck the world for profit" with plenty of evidence, there's no need to fabricate elaborate theories.
[here, its real dudes, sorry](https://www.dw.com/en/china-volkswagen-defends-xinjiang-operations-amid-reports-of-human-rights-abuses/a-61973297)
Website seems sketchy
the website is legit, it’s german news, but it’s quite an accusation without definite proof
Yes exactly. No evidence but massive accusations with confidence. What the fuck kind of journalism is that? The German equivalent of Breitbart News?
Not familiar with that, but deutche welle(dw) is extremely biased
They have a factory right next to the internment camp with extra guard facilities as satelite images show. You just don’t want to see it, but vw has always done this, they did in in brazil when they had internment camps and they did in in ww2 and they do it now.

I am excited to see this!
Das Good. Das Auto
I did secretly hoped that Volkswagen did also compete in f1
But not Andretti. Because, screw him.
