Red Bull Racing implements this name change ahead of the new season

For the first time, Red Bull Racing and Racing Bulls will race next season using engines developed and built in-house. These engines were always referred to as Red Bull Powertrains. After announcing the partnership with Ford, that soon became Red Bull Powertrains-Ford.

That’s quite a mouthful, and perhaps for that reason the engines have been renamed. On the FIA’s official entry list, the engine is now listed as Red Bull Ford, without 'Powertrains' or a hyphen.

Red Bull’s official team name will remain the same in 2026. The Austrian outfit will still appear on the grid as Oracle Red Bull Racing. The company name of the team is (still) called Red Bull Racing Limited.
