“Well this is pretty seismic news: Ford will return to Formula 1 in 2026 as a technical partner of Red Bull, having last featured in the sport way back in 2004. Yowzers!
This is a huge moment for F1 as Ford remains its third-most successful engine maker in history (alongside former subsidiary Cosworth), with 176 wins, 10 constructors’ and 13 drivers’ titles to its name. And that’s despite missing the last 19 years and having not powered a team to the championship since Williams . Explaining its decision, Ford says F1’s growing audience numbers - especially in the US (thank you Netflix) - as well as its commitment to hybrid power and sustainable fuels, are the main reasons behind its comeback. “Ford’s return to Formula 1 with Red Bull Racing is all about where we are going as a company – increasingly electric, software-defined, modern vehicles and experiences,” said Ford president and CEO, Jim Farley. “F1 will be an incredibly cost-effective platform to innovate, share ideas and technologies, and engage with tens of millions of new customers.” https://www.topgear.com/car-news/for...ng-f1-red-bull
