Inside the Australian GP with CEO Travis Auld: Cadillac, Audi & Ticket Price Backlash
Last time we spoke with Travis Auld, CEO of the Australian Grand Prix Corporation, he was just 100 days into the role. Now, nearly two years on, Travis returns to Paddock43 for an exclusive update on the future of Formula 1 in Australia.
In this candid conversation, we dig into the biggest storylines shaking up the sport: Cadillac’s bold entry into F1, Audi’s long-awaited debut in 2026, and the multi-million dollar paddock redevelopment at Albert Park. Travis also tackles the controversy surrounding rising ticket prices, explaining the challenges of making the Grand Prix both premium and accessible.
Beyond the headlines, Travis shares his best behind-the-scenes stories from running one of Australia’s most iconic sporting events — the surprises, the challenges, and the personal moments that remind him why the Australian GP is so special.
