There will be a significant upgrade to the ERS system after summer break and that along with a major chassis upgrade about the same time should bode well for RBR in the second half of the season.

I pick up that Red Bull and Honda are close to announcing an alternate engine deal – which started as a full works supply arrangement for both Red Bull teams, then mutated into an in-house project with Red Bull acquiring the intellectual rights and producing engines in Milton Keynes after Honda formally withdrew from F1 last year. When that proved tight, Honda agreed to supply 'white label' engines from Japan.

However, the issue is IP: by holding Honda's IP, Red Bull – even if the rights are unused – may not be viewed as a new engine supplier under F1's 2026 regulations, which provide development concessions to a newcomer, which Red Bull Powertrains, currently being set up in Milton Keynes, aims to be. The story goes that Red Bull will relinquish the IP rights, with Honda returning as low-key supplier with on-car branding.

It's always seemed strange that Red Bull would hold IP rights it no longer intends using, while Honda remains almost invisible despite supplying the reigning world champion with power units. Honda’s approach to F1 over the years has been one of F1's bigger mysteries. The question, though, is will the relinquishing of the IP rights be enough for Red Bull to be viewed as a newcomer in the eyes of the opposition?

The gearbox broke. The gearbox was at the end of its run, but it should have held on. We suspect consequential damage from yesterday's incident, although the impact did not directly affect the gearbox. We have to investigate that. It's unfortunate," Marko concluded to Austrian television station ORF.
