The Volkswagen-owned German car manufacturer is expected to partner with the Switzerland-based racing outfit Sauber team, currently racing as Alfa Romeo.
There are reports that Audi will purchase a 75 percent stake in Sauber.
Alfa Romeo has confirmed that it will end its partnership with Sauber by the close of 2023, paving the way for Audi.
There were further rumors that Audi would enter Formula One this season, but Volkswagen was holding off on deciding until the 2026 engine regulations were established.
The German brand was further encouraged to enter the international motorsport circuit by further actions such as the implementation of a cost cap and the net zero carbon objective for 2030.
