Formula 1 will say goodbye to the longest-standing motorhome in the paddock this weekend at Monza, with Sauber set for a new arrival in 2026.
Nico Hulkenberg is preparing for an emotional farewell at the Italian Grand Prix this weekend, as it marks the last event for Stake F1’s current motorhome. The team will switch to a new motorhome after Monza, ending a 20-year era with its current one. This change coincides with the final race of the European leg of the season, meaning no more transporting of motorhomes for the rest of the year. Stake F1’s current motorhome was first used in 2006 under the Sauber name and is the longest-standing in the F1 paddock. Audi has commissioned a new motorhome for the team’s use next year with the introduction of new power unit regulations. Hulkenberg, who first used the current motorhome in 2013 during his time with Sauber, acknowledged the emotional significance and memories associated with the old structure, expressing that he will miss it. Despite the upcoming change, Hulkenberg has not yet seen Audi’s new motorhome.
