News - 2026-11-05 - By Jenny Marsh

Autosport reported Red Bull has set out a timeline for a new wind tunnel, with Pierre Wache's group still working around current facility limits.

Autosport reported that Red Bull has outlined a timeline for a new Formula 1 wind tunnel, though that detail was not officially confirmed in the supplied material. The report said Pierre Wache's technical team is still dealing with limitations behind the scenes during the 2026 season.

The same report described Red Bull's current wind tunnel as the oldest on the Formula 1 grid, making any replacement schedule relevant to the team's longer-term development plans. Red Bull has raced in Formula 1 since 2005, winning 130 Grands Prix and six constructors' titles, which adds context to why reported changes to its technical infrastructure draw attention.
