Red Bull agree with Ferrari and Mercedes over 2021 rules

Red Bull motorsport advisor Dr Helmut Marko says recent reports suggesting that an agreement has been reached between Formula 1's teams and owners Liberty Media over proposed rule changes in 2021 are wide of the mark, although F1's three biggest teams are in agreement.

Marko told Auto Bild: "We are still a long way from an agreement.
