Red Bull

Red Bull’s roots trace back to 1997 when Sir Jackie Stewart entered a team under his own name: Stewart.

The plucky team enjoyed a smattering of success with the likes of Johnny Herbert and Rubens Barrichello driving for them before Jaguar bought them for the 2000 season.

The Jaguar project promised much but delivered little, however, and by the end of 2004 a new name was above the garage: Red Bull.

The drinks giant entered the sport as Red Bull Racing in 2005 with Christian Horner at the helm and worked their way to the front of the grid by the 2009 season, as they challenged Brawn GP, before 2010 to 2013 would prove their real zenith as they won four straight Drivers’ and Constructors’ titles.

In 2021, Max Verstappen won the world title with the team after an epic season-long duel against Lewis Hamilton.
