他们在车队积分榜上排名第四,但已追至距离第三名迈凯伦仅七分,作为引擎制造商的第一年正以极具竞争力的态势收官。
维斯塔潘在八月将与红牛的合同延长至2030年,而伊萨克·哈贾尔在米尔顿凯恩斯的首个赛季表现出色后,也获得了续约至2027年的合同。
在宣布梅基斯续约的联合声明中,红牛股东查勒姆·尤维迪亚和马克·马特希茨表示:“红牛的力量始终来自其员工,来自营造一个让才华横溢的人能够共同成就非凡的环境。”
“劳伦特在引导车队度过重要过渡期方面发挥了关键作用,同时保持了竞争精神以及定义我们的红牛原则。”
“此次续约体现了我们对他领导能力的信心,以及我们对车队长期愿景的共同信念。”
在天空体育F1秀播客中,伯尼·柯林斯对红牛以及他们在马克斯·维斯塔潘于新加坡大获全胜后的策略给予了高度赞扬。
“我们对未来雄心勃勃,并致力于共同在此基础上再接再厉。”
梅基斯此前也曾在法拉利和国际汽联工作,他表示:“我非常自豪能继续与甲骨文红牛车队一起走过这段旅程,我要感谢查勒姆、马克和奥利弗[明茨拉夫]、整个团队以及所有参与其中的人对这个项目所给予的信任。
“让这支车队与众不同的是,每个人都为了追求同一个目标而团结在一起,我感到很荣幸每天都能与这样一群才华横溢、全心投入的人共事。
“皮埃尔·瓦什和本·霍奇金森领导的团队在塑造我们的未来方面发挥着核心作用,我们共同拥有一个面向未来数年的强大平台,我们真心相信这仅仅是个开始。
“展望未来,我们将继续秉持那些定义我们的原则:思想自由、行动迅速、决策果敢。”
红牛车队的马克斯·维斯塔潘表示,在克里斯蒂安·霍纳离任后,F1围场内的压力有所减轻,因为“当人与人之间持续存在紧张关系时,这种感觉并不好”。
红牛公司项目与投资首席执行官奥利弗·明茨拉夫也称赞了49岁的梅基斯的领导才能。
他说:“洛朗自回归红牛大家庭以来展现出了卓越的领导力。”
“他兼具技术专长、战略思维,以及对我们车队成功之道的深刻理解。同样重要的是,他体现了定义红牛方式的价值理念与精神气质:勇气、团队合作、决心,以及永不停歇地追求在最高水平上竞争的渴望。”
“领导层的连续性是我们持续成功的关键因素,我们很高兴洛朗将继续带领车队走过我们旅程的下一个篇章。”

Laurent Mekies: Red Bull team principal signs contract extension to 2031 and vows recent wins 'only the beginning'
Red Bull announce extended five-year contract for team boss Laurent Mekies, who replaced Christian Horner in the role last season; watch every session of the United States GP in Austin on October 23-25, live on Sky Sports F1
Laurent Mekies has signed a five-year contract extension to continue as Red Bull team principal and chief executive until 2031.
Mekies joined the team from sister outfit Racing Bulls in July 2025 after Christian Horner was sacked following 20 years in charge.
News of Mekies' contract renewal comes in the wake of Red Bull claiming their first two wins of the season, both courtesy of Max Verstappen, over the past fortnight in Malaysia and Singapore.

They are fourth in the Constructors' Championship but have closed to within seven points of third-placed McLaren in what is shaping up to be a very competitive end to their first year as an engine manufacturer.
Verstappen extended his Red Bull contract to 2030 in August, while Isack Hadjar was also handed a contract renewal into 2027 after impressing in his first season at Milton Keynes.
In a joint statement announcing Mekies' extended deal, Red Bull shareholders Chalerm Yoovidhya and Mark Mateschitz said: "The strength of Red Bull has always come from its people and from creating an environment where talented individuals can achieve extraordinary things together.
"Laurent has played a crucial role in guiding the team through an important period of transition while maintaining the competitive spirit and the Red Bull principles that define us.
"This extension reflects our confidence in his leadership and our shared belief in the long term vision of the team.
On the Sky Sports F1 Show Podcast, Bernie Collins gave huge flowers to Red Bull and their strategy after Max Verstappen's clean sweep in Singapore.
"We are ambitious about what lies ahead and we are committed to building on this momentum together."
Mekies, who has also previously worked at Ferrari and the FIA, said: "I am incredibly proud to continue this journey with Oracle Red Bull Racing, and I would like to thank Chalerm, Mark, and Oliver [Mintzlaff], the entire team, and everyone involved for the trust they have placed in the project.
"What makes this team special is the way everyone comes together in pursuit of the same goal, and I feel privileged to work alongside such a talented and committed group every day.
"Together, with Pierre Wache's and Ben Hodgkinson's teams playing a central role in shaping our future, we have a strong platform for the years ahead, and we genuinely believe this is only the beginning.
"As we look ahead, we will continue to embrace the principles that define us: being free in our thinking, fast in our actions and bold in our decisions."
Red Bull's Max Verstappen says the F1 paddock is 'less stressful' following Christian Horner's exit because 'it is not nice when you constantly have tension between people'.
Oliver Mintzlaff, Red Bull's CEO of corporate projects and investments, also hailed the 49-year-old's Mekies' leadership qualities.
"Laurent has demonstrated outstanding leadership since returning to the Red Bull family," he said.
"He combines technical expertise, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of what makes our team successful. Just as importantly, he embodies the values and mentality that define the Red Bull way: courage, teamwork, determination, and an unrelenting desire to compete at the highest level.
"Continuity in leadership is a key ingredient for sustained success, and we are delighted that Laurent will continue to lead the team through the next chapter of our journey."
