According to Red Bull themselves, currently they have too many contracted drivers but have limited cockpits for them to pilot. Purchasing Minardi will help alleviate this pressing problem. Red Bull Cosworth (nee Minardi) will become the "junior" team where potential talents will be tested for a season or two and afterwards, they will either "graduate" to the company's senior teams (Red Bull Ferrari, etc.) or have their contracts terminated (if they obviously perform below expectations).
