The FIA is expected to grant Red Bull only partial status as a new Formula 1 power unit manufacturer.
The team has heavily invested in its powertrains division – a project started under the impression that Honda were bowing out of F1. The Japanese carmaker has remained longer than initially planned and will continue to assist Red Bull with their engines until 2025.
When new regulations come into force the following year, the team's new partnership with the Ford Motor Company will officially begin. That engine will be the first fully built by Red Bull Powertrains, with the help and knowledge of hybrid and electric vehicles provided by Ford.
