Officially, lap records are in race or practice only, but I think let's face it, qualifying is still doing laps. Qualifying laps style are done all the time by manufacturers on road cars too.

Ok, I get it. Renault was pissed off at Redbull for all the bashing and bad publicity, and refused to put their name on the engine.
So Redbull took the oppurtunity to sell a fantastic new type of ad slot - name of the engine-maker to their sponsor TAG Heuer.
Fantastic... Next thing we need is Ferrari with Marlboro engine :)

Renault, they just don't wanted to put their name on it, cause of the issues that RedBull and the French Maker had.

Who is building Red Bull F1 engines? Clearly, not a watch-maker. Redbull themselves?
