Ford announced today a partnership with Red Bull Racing to develop the next-gen hybrid power units for both Oracle Red Bull Racing and Scuderia AlphaTauri teams for the 2026 F1 season. The partnership is expected to last “at least” until 2030.
The new power unit is set to be comprised of a 350 kW electric motor mated to a “new combustion engine able to accept fully sustainable fuels.”

Technically a gm motor has won in f1 before as Brabham win the championship in 66 and 67 with the repco v8. The repco used the aluminum Oldsmobile block.
In reply to Colin Wood :
First Ford. Still waiting on Caddy. Technically.
Ford has a long history in F1, GM not so much.
This is coming full circle considering Red Bull took over from Jaguar F1 (aka Ford).

Ford as a brand name on a cosworth motor has a ton of success. Ford as an owner and designer, not so much.
Is it wrong to unrealistically dream of an Andretti team with a Cadillac chassis powered by a Ford engine?

Technically the Ford will be just a red bull engine
