Yeah, something sketchy about those Honda power units. Three in one race? :unsure:

Fuel Pump's apparently, and it is a standard part that all teams have to use.
I suspect it will effect other teams soon if the FIA don't fix it or drop the requirement to use it.

Max Pit stop problem was a separate issue, a suspension rod got damaged in the pit stop, it was the fule pump that caused the retirement on both Red Bulls.
 
I don't like Clucky but I'll admit he drove brilliantly. Was hoping one of the donkeys would take out the red bulls but they ended up taking themselves out.

I think Ferrari have got their Pony's back and they left the Donkeys' in the Mercedes paddock ;)

Lets play the spec parts lottery!

The pumps do come from an Italian supplier though :unsure:

You mean Verstappen?
Yoh he's had enough of this Redbull crap already. If people were tired of Hamilton's complaining... be prepared for this year.

Geez Louise, he was complaining like a little bitch almost constantly.

Pretty sure honda said they will work with red bull for 2022s engine and only 2023 will red bull go alone?

They did, but you are not allowed to call it a Honda, it is a RBPT for what I assume is a tax or legal issue.

Until 2025. But it's a "Red Bull Power Unit"
Red Bull go it alone? What does that mean?
 
Honda will also continue to assist building the power unit in 2022, as well as providing trackside and race operation support from Japan throughout the campaign. From 2023, Red Bull Powertrains will take full responsibility for all manufacturing and servicing of the engines.

Yeah, but it's the same PU. It's Honda's PU - Honda's development that has been handed over to RB. The same PU through 2024.
 
Not sure why they called it RBPT (Red Bull Power Trains) when "Poop Shoot" would have been a much catchier Name, more environmentally friendly and describe it more accurately. ;) :laugh:
Definition : The opening at the lower end through which solid waste is eliminated.

That's the old deal. Honda will build and support the PUs until 2025.

Wait, so it's a Honda Poop Chute, or a Redbull Poop Chute? I want to be accurate in my usage going forward.
