Red bull is not interested in any Honda agents in their factory after Honda decided that they like being paid by Aston Martin more

This is unfair to Honda. When they changed their mind and decided to stick around in F1, they approached red bull again to partner them for the 2026 regulations. By that time, red bull had already established RBPT and spent a considerable amount of money to buy and set up facilities and poach talent from others. They told Honda that the only way a new partnership would work is if RBPT developed part of the engine and Honda part of the engine. Honda wanted full control over the design and development of the engine so a deal was not reached.

Only after not being able to get back with red bull did Honda go behind Aston and their money.
