Porsche-Red Bull Formula 1 deal is dead.
, Porsche wanted to take a hands-on approach with Red Bull, which the F1 team resisted. Understandably so, given that Red Bull powered Max Verstappen to a driver's title last year, and it's been the dominant team in F1 this year, almost certain to win driver's and constructor's championships before the season ends.
It seems Red Bull wants to be in total control of its future destiny. The team partnered with Honda for an engine supply after the Japanese manufacturer's disastrous stint with McLaren, and after Honda decided to pull out after 2021, Red Bull started up its own powertrain division. Red Bull Powertrains currently runs the old Honda engine, but in 2026, when new regulations take effect, it will produce an engine of its own design. Red Bull's 2026 engine is already testing on the dyno.
