Nico Hulkenberg, seasoned Formula 1 driver, has expressed his surprise following the recent shakeup in Audi's F1 project leadership. Audi, gearing up to join the Formula 1 grid in 2026 by acquiring the Sauber-owned team currently known as Stake F1, announced significant changes earlier this week. "No, not concerned, that was a bit of a shock," he told media.
