Mattia Binotto targets an Audi Formula 1 title challenge by 2030.

Audi enters the summer break eighth in the constructors' standings after three consecutive points finishes. Binotto believes the R26 can compete in the upper midfield, although its power unit remains down on power against its rivals.

The team has received permission for two additional power-unit updates, with one believed to have been introduced in Barcelona. Race-start problems and Nico Hulkenberg's unusual retirement in Spain have also cost Audi points.
