The iconic manufacturer is believed to be in advanced talks with Red Bull over a deal that would see Ford badge the Milton Keynes outfit’s power units when new F1 engine regulations come into play in 2026. Ford Perfomance boss Mark Rushbrook admitted F1’s appeal is hard to ignore following Liberty Media’s takeover and the impact of Netflix’s"Formula 1 is strong and growing, both in the United States and worldwide,” Rushbrook is quoted as saying by“They have great races, a great competition and they have managed to reach new target groups with things like Drive to Survive.”
But Rushbrook remained coy on the specific rumours regarding a potential 2026 collaboration with Red Bull.“We do not comment on speculation, but this is the case with all series that exist,” he stressed. “It is our responsibility to study and understand them, and then decide whether it makes sense or not.”Red Bull previously held talks with Porsche over an alliance from 2026 before the deal collapsed last year.
