    The Japanese have a hand for quitting just when things start to look good, just like in 2008 where they had a championship-winning car in the pipeline for 2009.

    It will be interesting to see who Red Bull will now be turning to (or maybe they will quit F1, too).
    Well I don't know what their financial situation is like, but this seems like a poor decision.
    Thery stated that their goal of "winning races" has been accomplished. Bizarre

    For RBR's sake i would hope they would find a way to purchase (along with some investors) the honda engine department and rebrand it infinty.
    Then watch them go out and win the 2022 WCC similar to what went down in 2008.
    I'm pretty sure Honda has been working on the 2022 engine as well, so that can be salvaged.

    I wonder if RBR knew before they resigned the concorde agreement, and if honda knew already that they were pulling out.
    But RBR already said they are committed and will evaluate their options.

    But this is a bit pathetic by honda. the timing could not be worse. the press statement banal, and they just might be shooting themselves in the foot in PR terms.
