Formula One leader Red Bull has announced a five-year contract extension with engine supplier Renault.
The deal means the relationship will continue through the sport's introduction of 1.6-liter V6-turbo engines in 2014. The collaboration began in 2007.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner says, ''Renault Sport F1 has always been very straightforward to work with, which has been a contributing factor to the ongoing success of the Red Bull Racing-Renault partnership.''
Entering this weekend's Italian Grand Prix, Red Bull drivers Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber are 1-2 in the drivers' standings. The team holds a 131-point lead over McLaren in the constructors' standings, with Ferrari nearly 200 points back in third.
