Colostomy Bag posted:What was the Ford engine deal anyways? They slapping a sticker onto the Honda design that RB was supposed to take over? 2020/2021: Honda does a Honda and wants to leave F1 right when they are near the top. Redbull doesn't want to be a customer again so they start Redbull Powertrains (RBPT), to take over (and develop) the current Honda engine. 2022: Engine freeze takes hold due to new engine formula in 2026. Still stuff like Reliability and stuff allowed, just no full on development. Redbull uses the current Honda engine as RBPT. Later in the year Honda decides they don't like getting 0 credit or whatever, and the engine name goes to RBPT-Honda but Honda keeps the designs/rights iirc. 2023: RBPT starts making own 2026 engine but wants a partner. Porsche tries to get into F1 through Redbull wanting to take over/share RBPT and RBR team, the deal falls through. Redbull makes deal with Ford. RBPT-Ford engine for 2026, Ford seemingly involved on the electric side. Also 2023: Honda changed their mind and wanted to stay in F1, but it was too late to stay/get back with Redbull. They will be the engine for Aston Martin in 2026. TL;DR for 2026 engines: Mercedes: Merc, Williams, McLaren Ferrari: Ferrari, Haas RBPT-Ford: RedbullRacing, The other RB Honda: Aston Martin Renault: Alpine Audi: Audi(Sauber) Zedd fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Mar 5, 2024 |

So I was curious and looked deeper into the Ricciardo-Tsunoda situation in Bahrain, and my big takeaway mirrors basically what I thought at the end of last season: Honda must be cutting Red Bull an awfully large check to make this poo poo worthwhile for them. - Before the last pit rotation Yuki had about a 6 second lead on KMag - KMag undercut Yuki - Yuki had an abysmal in lap, followed by an equally bad out lap, then got passed on track by KMag the next lap. - Yuki couldn't retake the position and spent something like 15 laps getting held up by the Haas. - Meanwhile Ricciardo was quite some distance back from Yuki before all of this, but put on softs on his last stop. - Ricciardo was gaining about a second a lap on Zhou, and about .7s a lap on Yuki/KMag after his stop. Pace wise, at the closing stages of the race he was running pretty similar lap times as Oscar Piastri. - The TV broadcast picked up the battle about a dozen laps in as Ricciardo was closing in on Tsunoda. So Yuki had quite a bit of time to take the battle to the Haas before getting told to swap positions.

Pray for Fast Heikki! https://www.iltalehti.fi/formulat/a/a0009f80-21a8-4e2a-8edb-82ac0c7b5350 quote:Paraphrasing into English: Kovalainen was diagnosed with a dilatation of the ascending aorta some months ago as part of an extended health check-up. He had to stop racing and other heavy physical activities. The article states that, 'Kovalainen and doctors are leaning towards open-heart surgery. It carries its own high risks. For example, the heart is stopped during the multi-hour operation.'

MustardFacial posted:Do you get the world's most retarded AI help you write this drivel. A senior barrister and associated law firm have concluded that there's nothing to see here but apparently you, other journos bereft of a moral compass plus the likes of verstappen sr, Wolff and Brown know better...which is ironic since it looks to me like a self-interest group with no moral compass. I genuinely do not get how anybody thinks the legal profession are in any way arbiters of the truth. A barrister is literally paid by you to argue your case, regardless of its veracity. But we already knew how highly regarded motorsports.com comment posters are.

Joe's Award just posted this.quote:There have been rumours for a while that Red Bull’s primary shareholder Chalerm Yoovidhya, who controls 51 percent of the shares, is considering taking the Red Bull Technology Group Ltd out of Red Bull GmbH empire and setting it up as an independent car company, with Horner in charge and a shareholder in the business. This makes a great deal of sense because a drinks firm does not really have much use for an engine company and a supercar production division. If Yoovidhya has 51 percent of the shares, he can do as he pleases. Removing Horner would leave the technology division under the control of Red Bull GmbH. Whatever the case, Horner wants to be left alone to run the group he has created, without outside interference. When Dietrich Mateschitz was alive he had that freedom.

Really loving the most extreme example of Great-man-theory (only overshadowed by elon sycophants) that the entire RB racing team would crumble without Horner there... a really generous reading would be other key people (Newey) leaving if Horner leaves but that's just incidental...
