Mission & Purpose

For many fans of Formula One, the sport exists between lights and chequered flag on a Sunday afternoon. It begins and ends with the exploits of the drivers on the track. But this is merely the tip of the spear. The reality of modern F1 is that of a complex and intertwined operation, every part of which needs to perform near its limit if success is to be achieved. From the pitcrew searching for the ultimate repeatable pitstop, to the inspiration of the designers, the application of engineers and the herculean efforts of an army of fabricators and machinists, Formula One is a team sport in a very literal sense. From the moment Red Bull Racing first turned a wheel in Formula One, at the start of the 2005 season, it was always clear that if the ultimate goal of championship victories were to be reached it would only be done if the team invested in F1’s most crucial assets – people and experience. Red Bull Racing has come a long way in a short time. Founded with the goal of doing things a bit differently, our nine championship titles are testament to our success in meeting that target. In 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 we claimed the Formula One Constructors’ and Drivers’ Championships and added a fifth Drivers' title in 2021. By the start of the 2022 season, the Team has achieved 75 race wins, 206 podiums, 76 fastest laps and 73 pole positions.
