Red Bull technical director Pierre Wache has warned rivals that the team's first in-house Formula 1 engine project has massive potential, rating its current development at just four or five out of 10. The squad is running its first independent engine program with Ford, known as the Red Bull Ford DM01, which is produced by Red Bull Powertrains in Milton Keynes.

Wache explained that integrating the engine program with chassis development remains an ongoing learning process with substantial room for improvement.
