Overview

At the British Grand Prix in early July, Audi’s drivers Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hülkenberg failed to reach Q3 in qualifying, leaving the team without points and highlighting technical and driver‑error issues. By the end of July at the Hungarian Grand Prix, Audi achieved its first points of the season when Hülkenberg finished ninth and Bortoleto ran close to the points, reflecting a marked improvement in race pace and car performance. The team cited the results as a positive step forward as the championship moves toward its mid‑year break.
