Ahead of the highly anticipated Monaco Grand Prix, Audi gave motorsport fans a thrilling glimpse of its road-going future. The Audi Revolut F1 Team’s newly minted driver lineup—Formula 1 veteran Nico Hülkenberg and rising star Gabriel Bortoleto—were spotted piloting the brand’s breathtaking new halo car, the limited-run Audi Nuvolari hybrid supercar, around the tight, legendary corners of the Monaco street circuit.
The appearance serves as a high-octane statement of intent for the German manufacturer as it steadily builds its branding, synergy, and technical presence in the pinnacle of motorsport.
Track-Bred Performance and F1 Technology
Named in honor of legendary pre-war racing driver Tazio Nuvolari, the supercar is a tour de force of engineering that brings genuine Grand Prix intelligence to public roads.
-
F1-Inspired DRS: One of the vehicle’s most radical design highlights is its active aerodynamic package. Just like an F1 car, it utilizes an automated Drag Reduction System (DRS), which adjusts rear wing flaps on straightaways to dump aerodynamic drag and maximize top speed.
-
Cutting-Edge Lightweighting: Despite carrying a complex, heavy hybrid battery and electric motor system, Audi kept total curb weight down to an agile 1,690 kg by implementing an intensive spaceframe mixture of high-strength aluminum and carbon-fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP).
-
The Powerhouse: Under the rear glass sits a ferocious 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine coupled to high-output electric motors.

By placing Hülkenberg and Bortoleto—the faces of Audi’s modern racing revolution—behind the wheel in the glamorous playground of Monaco, Audi is making it clear: their incoming F1 team isn’t just about winning trophies on Sundays, it’s about building engineering marvels you can park in your garage.
