RED BULL will use Honda engines next season – marking the end of a oncedominant partnership with Renault.

Red Bull won four driver and constructor championships in a row with Sebastian Vettel, now at Ferrari, and Renault.

The pairing also won 47 races but Renault’s struggles with the V6 turbo hybrid units proved too much.

The deal is for 2019 and 2020, and Red Bull principal Christian Horner (above) said: “We are certain this partnership with Honda is the right direction.”
