That's one heck of a commitment to Formula racing from Red Bull.
Wonder if they will try to offer engines to other teams, or if their contract with Honda locks them into only their two teams?
Does this extend to F2 powerplants as well? I haven't been paying attention.

And will this affect the rumoured addition of VAG in 2026, I wonder? Were they considering running a team (and if so, buying one of the existing 10, or starting #11), or just supplying engines? Seems that the market for engines just got 20% smaller. RBR isn't going to make this investment for only 4 years. Ferrari and Mercedes aren't going anywhere, and Renault/Alpine won't likely buy an outsourced engine unless the parent company merges in future.
