I'm from Germany nd I don't want to wait till the Season 3 DVD comes here. So I'm going to buy the UK Season, but of course I want the original audio track. So can anyone tell me wether the audio tracks from Season 1 and 2 were edited or changed in any way?

Changed from the original USA audio? Nope, not at all.

Unless you count the inevitable NTSC to PAL speed-up.

They don't convert from NTSC to PAL. Futurama is produced at 24fps. That's sped up to 25fps for PAL. For NTSC, they do a 24->30fps conversion so it plays at the same speed as 24fps. The PAL version is chimpmonkified by 4%.

No, speed-up. Because of different frame rates, shows run about 5% shorter here than they do in the US.
