Red Bull are just two years away from racing with their own F1 engine when the 💖2026 engine regulations come into effect, having set up t♉heir own power unit division - Red Bull Powertrains. 

After dominating F1 for the past two seasons, team princi𓄧pal Horner has conceded Red Bull’s decisi✃on to design and manufacture their own engine is a risk. 

"There is an equalisation mechanism in the rules, but it🐬 always has a latency around it, usually a 12-month delay," Horner told Sky F1.

“We've invested in the UK along with our partners✅, together with Ford, to have the engine facility on campus. Now we've got a factory, state-of-the-art facilities and close to 500 people working on the 2026 engine. 𓆏;

“But going from nothing to taking on Mercedes, Ferrari, Honda, Renault and Audi, we're looking forward to it but it's a bol🐈d move, even though it's one we think will pay off in the long term.”

Red Bull’s decision to go it alone - with the help of Ford - was prompted by Honda’s initial plan to quit F1, before the Japanese manufactꦡurer U-turned. 

Honda wil🔯l now supply Aston Martin with eng🌃ines from 2026.
