Red Bull: Will further behind in 2016.

The genius behind four consecutive titles at Red Bull drivers and constructors, Adrian Newey, has announced that the world of Formula 1 has changed radically since entered the new turbo hybrid engines. The Briton admitted that the team from Milton Keynes again will have no chance to fight for the top positions. Newey is in India for the weekend, where his son Harrison took part in the last race of the season in the series MRF Challenge.Red Bull Racing finished second in the constructors season in 2014, which was the first new hybrid engines. But then Newey withdraw from the main post he occupied, and as a bonus got problems with turbo engines of Renault throughout the year. All this sent the team in fourth place in the overall standings at the end of the season without any chance to attack even one victory. "Our hope for 2016 is to keep the gap with the teams at the top.
The expected development by Mercedes and Ferrari, however, makes me think that we will back further than what we achieved in 2015," said Adrian. Red Bull failed to convince Mercedes to sign a contract for the supply of engines. Newey believes that things have changed a lot from the golden age of Formula 1: "Cosworth have made winning engine in 1967, which was made available for use by Lotus. Then from Lotus agreed other teams to use it for the good of the sport. For Unfortunately, this kind of attitude towards sport no longer exists. If F1 is not in his best form - is there any sense in it to win? ". Red Bull and Bernie Ecclestone, do not stop to talk and asked for an independent engine manufacturer that no team participating in the championship. Only engine manufacturers recently approved the request of the president of the International Automobile Federation Jean Todt to reduce the cost for customers who want to buy from them at 12 million euros for 2017. Bernie has not given up the idea of ​​an alternative provider of engines for Formula 1, he said: "Until we get an engine that can be done at a much lower price than the current, yes - there will be problems in the future". Critics of Red Bull still use their domination four consecutive titles as kontrateza of constant complaints from teams about the situation in sport, but Adrian Newey believes that things then were quite different: "Although we managed to win four titles in seasons 2010 and 2012 title was decided in the last races. Second, when you created a good chassis and aerodynamics for this chassis, it can be seen and copies of all people and competitors until the situation with engines not. The only way to make up the difference with huge investment and hiring new people. Ferrari's performance improved significantly from 2014 to 2015, but it took many people by Mercedes, "he Newey. If the British genius in creating cars turn right and Red Bull left behind more than last year, it could mean future solve the problems at McLaren for 2016 season.
