Ferrari boss Frederic Vasseur has dismissed Helmut Marko’s comments that Red Bull are a step ahead with their 2026 F1 power unit.
F1 will introduce entirely new engines for 2026 as part of their revised technical regulations.
Mercedes, Ferrari, Renault and Honda will continue to supply engines in 2026, while Audi will develop their own power unit when they join the grid, taking over the Sauber team.For the first time in their history, Red Bull will develop their own engines through Red Bull Powertrains, backed by manufacturer Ford.
Recently, Marko revealed that he thought Red Bull were a step ahead of Ferrari and Audi with their engine development. He said: “In August, we are still running a complete combustion engine with MGU-K and battery. There we are miles ahead of Audi, we are miles ahead of Ferrari, and Mercedes is about the same.”“No. I think it’s a game,” he said. “It’s a game and I don’t want to make any comments on the [engine] situation of the others. We are pushing.“We are in a good situation.
