Red Bull to continue using Renault engines in 2010

Renault has confirmed today that it will continue to supply engines to Red Bull Racing in 2010, extending the successful partnership that has been in place since 2007. The agreement means Red Bull Racing will use identical engines to those used by the Renault F1 Team throughout the 2010 season.

Renault F1 Team President, Bernard Rey, said: “We can confirm that our productive partnership with Red Bull Racing will continue in 2010. The close relationship between Renault and Red Bull Racing has grown since 2007 – and this year it resulted in six victories and second place in the 2009 Constructors’ Championship. Together we believe that we can build on this success and contribute to Red Bull Racing’s future endeavours.”

Christian Horner, Red Bull Racing Team Principal, commented: “2009 has been Red Bull Racing’s finest season to date. In one year, we’ve achieved six wins and four onetwo finishes, none of which would have been possible without the excellent support and assistance we have received from our partners at Renault. We are extremely happy with the way they work with us and are looking forward to continuing our fruitful partnership with Renault in 2010.”
