After Red Bull, which could use a ninth engine Renault for Sebastian Vettel, it is BMW which is studying this possibility for the end of the season. The Swiss team only has one new engine for each of its drivers, Nick Heidfeld and Robert Kubica, and the last four Grands Prix could require a ninth engine for both drivers. BMW, which experienced engine problems at Monza, will use its “old” engines for free practice at the next meetings.
