not sure where that leaves ExxonMobil but in a previous post he suggested that they may move over to Red Bull.
German TV has just talked about this, confirming Castrol/BP to McLaren and ExxonMobil moving over to RedBull. I doubt we'll get an official confirmation from McLaren before the end of the season though. Is RedBull connected to another oil company at the moment? They lost Total when they dropped the Renault name IIRC?
