Red Bull won the support of Mercedes on Saturday for a call to freeze Formula One's engine rules so they might continue using Honda's power unit after the Japanese have left at the end of 2021.REUTERS: Red Bull won the support of Mercedes on Saturday for a call to freeze Formula One's engine rules so they might continue using Honda's power unit after the Japanese have left at the end of 2021.
Horner said the plan only made sense for an independent outfit if the astronomical costs could be removed by freezing development.The sport is otherwise due for a major rules overhaul in 2022, having postponed it from 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Mercedes, who have won every championship in the V6 turbo hybrid era that started in 2014, have ruled out supplying Red Bull but motorsport head Toto Wolff told reporters he would support a freeze.
Red Bull won both titles for four years in a row with Renault from 2010-13 but fell out with the French manufacturer in the new era. "Renault don't really want to supply us," he added."It's inconvenient to supply a team like Red Bull, we're not a standard customer team. We're not a small team."
