I also suspect we're not going to be getting a full F1 update in the near future, beyond the obvious problems of Codemasters having the rights to the F1 brand in video games. I noticed that in the Bathurt 1000 challenge in-game every major V8 Supercars team was represented with a couple of exceptions. Tekno, Triple 8, Walkinshaw (better known as HRT) and NISMO all appeared. Team Penske, Gary Rogers Motorsport and most importantly, Red Bull Racing, didn't. GRM race Volvos and long story Volvo isn't happy about that so it's easy to see why they aren't in the game. Team Penske, who knows? They already appear with NASCAR so I have no clue what's going on there, but it doesn't really matter. Red Bull Racing, on the other hand, have no reason to not be in RR3, especially when you consider that their parent team, Triple 8, does appear, with the 888 Team Vortex Commodore.

The only reason I can think of for RBR to not appear in the game, is if Red Bull didn't want them to. Now obviously this is 100% speculation but I'm willing to bet that we'll never see a Red Bull F1 car in Real Racing 3.

On a more positive note, there are plenty of other F1 cars they can add and if they can make a Supercars update missing not one but two cars from the championship (more on that in a later post), I'm sure they could get away with a "Formula A Championship" or something like that, including the Mercedes, Mclaren, Ferrari and Renault cars. That is really what I found surprising. red Bull is not like Ferrari and has got their name attached to literally EVERY form of motorsport. I don't get why they don't want more publicity (as if they don't have enough :::)
