PORSCHE STILL SEEKING F1 OPTIONS
The FIA has revealed that the Porsche brand is still considering an F1 entry in the future, despite talks with Red Bull Racing on a link-up falling apart.
The German firm, along with sister brand Audi, has been in serious discussions about joining the topflight, but it was feared that the plan had been shelved when the
Red Bull talks stalled. Audi has tied up a deal with the Alfa Romeo team from 2026 onwards.
In a statement issued to the FIA’s governing body recently, the FIA said Porsche was still at the table. It read: “At Spa-Francorchamps in August, Audi announced it was joining the FIA Formula 1 world championship from 2026.
“This announcement was an endorsement of the hard work by all stakeholders to develop those regulations. We also note that
Porsche are still in discussions with Formula 1 teams.”
Porsche is thought to be in discussions with Williams and could also look to forge a links with the nascent Andretti F1 entry.
