Red Bull F1 Team Principal Horner Downplays Possible Aston Martin Deal

Red Bull F1 Team Principal Christian Horner has "played down rumours of a potential partnership with Aston Martin," and made clear that the team will honor its Renault engine deal, according to GP UPDATE. Magazine Autocar reported that Aston Martin is negotiating a return to F1 in a "tie-up with Red Bull for next season, which would include the supply of Mercedes engines." But when quizzed on the matter at the British Grand Prix and Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer's attendance over the weekend, Horner "distanced himself from the speculation." Horner: "Andy Palmer was here on a Force India pass. The fact is, we have a contract with Infiniti and Renault until the end of 2016." Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff "denied that discussions have already taken place" with Red Bull over a potential engine supply deal, but said that he is "leaving the door open." Wolff said, "There are many, many things to be considered" (GP UPDATE, 7/6).
