This move marks a shake-up in the management structure as Audi prepares for its 2026 debut. From August 1, Binotto will take on the dual roles of chief operating officer and chief technical officer, stepping into the hot seat to drive Audi’s F1 ambitions. This appointment comes on the heels of some major exits, with Sauber CEO Andreas Seidl and Oliver Hoffmann, previously chairman of the board of directors, departing the project. Why the sudden change of guard? It’s simple. Audi is ramping up its F1 preparations, and it's becoming increasingly clear that tighter control and enhanced infrastructure are critical. Currently, Sauber, the team Audi will be taking over, has yet to score a point this season - a situation Audi aims to dramatically improve.

The 488 Pista Spider sets a new benchmark for Ferrari, for spider performance, made possible thanks to the adoption of the most powerful Ferrari V8 engine ever which was recently named Best Engine in the World for the third consecutive year at the 2018 International Engine of the Year awards. The 3,902 cc twin-turbo V8 unleashes 710 bhp @ 8,000 rpm/770 Nm @ 3,000 rpm and combines that power with increasing torque at all engine speeds for continuous and unending acceleration all the way to the redline. Standstill to 100 km/h takes 2.85 seconds, while 0-200 km/h needs only 8 seconds; maximum speed is rated at 340 km/h.
