DRIVERS STANDING Red Bull engine 'change' in '06
11-16-2004

(GMM -- Nov.16) 'Red Bull Racing' may not be powered by a Cosworth engine beyond 2005, Formula One team owner Dietrich Mateschitz admitted.

The 'RB1' racer, formerly referred to as 'R6' under Ford's ownership of defunct Jaguar, is designed for a Cosworth V10 and it makes no sense to re-design just prior to pre-season testing.

''But I can imagine a change in 2006,'' said the Austrian billionaire, Mateschitz.

Meanwhile, Red Bull F1 principal Tony Purnell - who oversaw the design of the R6 - said RB1 'will be a good, solid car.'

He added: ''The uncertainty has been a setback but we're back on course.''
