Red Bull refuse to give into Renault pressure

Red Bull are refusing to give into Renault's pressure about making their decision for their engine supplier.

Red Bull's wish is to make their decision on the engine supplier between the next two races (French and Austrian grand prix).

Cyril Abiteboul, Renault's Managing Director said: "In Austria, our offer is not going to be there anymore. They'll have to talk to Honda."

Christian Horner, Red Bull's boss believes that his team should be allowed more time to analyse both Renault and Honda's engine before making their decision.

"We're taking a close look in Canada and France. Then we'll make our choice," Horner said.

There has been some animosity between the two sides in the build up to Red Bull's decision.

Dr Helmut Marko, Red Bull's racing consultant, believes that Renault shouldn't be making this much fuss about the length of decision.

'Whether it's France or Austria, it's only a few days," Marko told GrandPrix.com.

Pierre Gasly's performance in Montreal with Honda's engine would have undoubtedly caught the attention of the likes of Horner and Marko.
