As reported back before Christmas, it looks like the Red Bull Racing will not be running with the Renault engines in 2011 – but will switch to Infiniti instead. It amounts to the same thing, of course, as Infiniti is a Nissan brand and Nissan and Renault are together partners. The engine will be the same, only the badging will be different. It will probably ease the Red Bull budget.

| Infiti engine!! |
Infiniti started out in the USA in 1989 but in recent years has gradually expanded into new markets in Asia, China, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. It was launched in Europe at the end of 2008. The Infiniti name has been used before in motor racing, with the Indy Racing League engines being branded Infiniti between 1996 and 2002.
So this brand will receive global visibility through collaboration with the champion team of the pinnacle of Motorsport and the side of Red Bull will have significant economic benefits as well . Sources say that the Bulls will take their engines without cost, so they could probably save more than 8 million, representing a 5% of the annual budget of the team.
So get ready for the announcement of the Red Bull - Infiniti in the beginning of the new season!!
