Stephen Winkleman Will Leave Audi Sport, Headed For Bugatti
He’s only been CEO of Audi Sport since March 2016, but Stephen Winkleman is set to leave the Ingolstadt’s performance arm. Citing VW Group officials, Autocar reports that the 52-year-old will leave the firm “later this year,” replacing Wolfgang Dürheimer as president of Bugatti.
So far during his stint at Audi Sport, Winkleman has overseen a rebrand (the company was formerly ‘quattro GmbH’), plus the launches of the RS3, RS5 and R8 Spyder. The all-new RS4 may also emerge before the end of his tenure. Prior his time at Audi, he’d been president and CEO of Lamborghini.
Audi China sales head Michael-Julius Renz is tipped to replace Winkleman, while Dürheimer is expected to retain his post as chairman of Bentley.
The long-term post-dieselgate management restructuring could also see Winkleman take the Bentley role too, according Autocar’s sources.

The Chiron replacement will be the Bugatti W16 Plus Performante Edizione Rosso quattro Spyder
I think you misspelled his name
His name is Stephan Winkelmann, not Stephen Winkleman
Next: Bugatti Chrion 90 TFSI
“A 2.9-L V6 with five electric turbos to replace the W16!
Industry-leading understeer and adaptive cruise control set to 0.5m following distance come as standard.
P.S. If you want top speed to be delimited from 155mph, you’ll have to pay extra”
