Red Bull’s Customer Team Plans Revealed, Potentially Rivaling Mercedes

Red Bull’s engine department, Red Bull Powertrains, which was initiated in early 2021 following Honda’s departure from Formula 1, has ambitious plans to supply teams. However, they are taking a cautious approach and intend to focus on serving their two existing teams before expanding further.

Currently, Formula 1 has four engine suppliers servicing all 10 teams. This number is set to increase to six by 2026, with Audi and Honda rejoining as engine suppliers. Red Bull’s new venture into engine manufacturing has garnered significant interest, particularly due to their current success on the track.
