Renault makes heavily upgraded engine for US Grand Prix

It is about time Renault upgraded their engine, lets hope Red Bull can now have similar HP to Merc and Ferrari.
Renault updates mainly with the internal combustion engine (ICE) and some minute changes to the turbo. Most importantly, the new Power Unit has passed a full cycle on the dyno, which guarantees it’s reliability.
The French manufacturer will make the previous spec, used in Russia, available should Red Bull decide against using the upgraded engine.
It is understood Renault’s other customer Toro Rosso, which is close to a contract to use 2015-spec Ferrari engines next year, will not run the Renault upgrade at Austin.
Renault will permit Red Bull to make a decision whether they will use it or not, if do, then they will get a Grid Place Penalty for the US Grand Prix.

(You need anything you can get against Toro Rosso!)
I wonder if it really is something else they hate...
I
think the same can be said of their fan base.
A glimmer of hope with a fast engine behind them, but with a fundamentally complacent engineering capability.
It's not the best of business practices, just ask your employer.
I don't condone Red Bull for being angry or for wanting to be competitive but they have simply shat on all engine suppliers and the message they sent to all fans is that if we don't get our way we'll take our toys and go home. If that's being sporting then the sooner they leave the better.
