Red Bull's quit threats are empty and unfair

Red Bull has dropped hints it could quit Formula 1 - again. Is there any point taking it seriously?

Another year; another warning from Red Bull it could withdraw from Formula 1.

To be fair, the latest remarks, made by the energy drink's motorsport consultant Helmut Marko - a doctor of law, no less - was implied rather than stated outright, but the implication was clear: do as we demand, or we could walk away from F1.

As is generally the case when Red Bull makes such threats, the latest warning centres around the need for cheap, noisy engines to be made available by 2021 at the latest.
