That should definitly increase their chances of becoming one of the better teams in F1. Congratulations Red Bull.

Hmm, i dunno, id prefer if they stuck with Cosworth. Ferrari aren't going to give them they're latest engines, they'll get something similar to Sauber and they haven't done too much good.... besides Cosworth have got the most experience with V8s in the current F1 field and have proven they're reliability and are improving all the time

Question is is Sauber is going to stay with Ferrari or go with the BMW engines as rumored earlier this year?
The F1 commentators on Speed TV mentioned that this was possibly the doing of Bernie and Jean Todt to bring more people to sign up for F1 for the future instead of the potential rival GPWC

Wow, wow. This is pretty big news. I've been so far behind on my F1 coverage this year, it's a shame. I'm gonna have some serious catching up to do over the summer, but this really makes me look forward to next year. Go Red Bull!

From 2006 it`s almost sure that Sauber will be powered by BMW , and some say , that Peter Sauber want`s to sell the team , so he made a very expensive bait , a multi million dollar wind tunnel :roll:
The problem with Cosworth ,it`s that they deliver very bad engines for a large amount of money .
Ex RedBullRacing is paying for engines this year 20 mil $
Sauber , for muchhhhhhhhhh better Ferrari engines pays 23 mil $

Sauber and Red Bull have been pretty good throughout the year; both improving over last year. Sauber could do with better engines to complement their improved car (with the help of their new wind tunnel). If they stick with old Ferrari stuff, they'll never make it to the top. But old Ferrari stuff is still good, and worth paying for. Cosworth has amazingly improved its engine since last year and thus, Red Bull has improved. They should stick with Cosworth if Cosworth can prove that they can make better and better engines.

^^ not true ... all thats gonna happen is sauber is gonna get BMW engines instead of ferrari engines .. bmw engines are half as much as ferrari engines
EDIT :: new news .... sauber really is interested in selling the company ... hes arround 68 and wanna live the rest of his life peacefully right ....
so with their relation with BMW and the engine thingy ... BMW itself is interested in buying the team along with the newly established wind tunnel ..... niceee

Yep, I would not be surprised if we saw a 100% BMW team next year and a Cosworth powered Williams...

Maybe, but that's something on which I wouldn't put my money on... They don't seem happy with Williams so far, to say the least...
Either way, this is really bad for Cosworth, supplying only Minardi...
