Most teams on the Formula One grid would simply love to be powered by Mercedes engines, and Red Bull Racing are no exception.

Over the British Grand Prix weekend, it was suggested that the four-time world champions were working on a deal to switch from Renault to Mercedes power units, with the help of sports-car giants Aston Martin, for the 2016 season.

However, Christian Horner, the Red Bull team principal, cooled speculation by insisting the Milton Keynes-based outfit are committed to fulfilling their contract with Renault despite the French manufacturer's enduring struggles in the V6 turbo era.

Red Bull's reluctance to join forces with Aston Martin, though, doesn't mean the British company aren't keen on returning to F1. And it is reported that Aston have identified up to three existing teams to partner for 2016.

Kimi Raikkonen will be hoping he will play a part on the 2016 grid too, and the 2007 world champion made something of a return to form at the British GP. Raikkonen's Ferrari boss, Maurizio Arrivabene, however, has ordered the media to stop the speculation over his future as the Finn fights for his F1 career.

Raikkonen's 2014 team-mate, Fernando Alonso, scored his first point of the season at Silverstone as his difficult campaign with McLaren-Honda continued.

Though the two-time world champion wasn't in the mood for celebrating, Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff was after Lewis Hamilton's win on home soil extended the British driver's championship lead and returned the feel-good factor back to Formula One.

Here's this week's F1 rumour roundup.
