Adrian Newey looks set to stay at Red Bull for the foreseeable future.
The 51-year-old Briton joined the Austrian team from McLaren in 2006, and as chief technical officer is widely credited for the success of the dominant RB6.
Germany's Sport Bild claims Newey, arguably the most sought-after figure in the entire world of formula one, intends to stay put.
"Contractual matters are confidential, but it's true. Last year, Adrian requested to remove a clause that would have ended his contract this year," team boss Christian Horner said of the report.
Former grand prix winner Gerhard Berger backs the move, insisting that Red Bull will remain on the pace "as long as Newey and Vettel are there".
Red Bull Racing has given the strongest indication yet that it is ready to renew Mark Webber's contract for 2011.
In the wake of his dominance in Spain and Monaco, chiefs of the Austrian-owned team indicated they are keen to keep the 33-year-old Australian alongside Sebastian Vettel next year.
But Red Bull's motor sport advisor Dr Helmut Marko signalled recently that joint championship leader Webber's back-to-back wins could have an effect on the "salary negotiations".
Ahead of the Turkish grand prix, team principal Christian Horner hinted to Germany's Bild-Zeitung newspaper that Red Bull is ready to simply extend Webber's current deal.
"If we sat down together on the subject of a contract extension, it would be a pretty short conversation," said the Briton.
