red bull f1 / f1 teams / f1

Named after the energy drink, the Red Bull company purchased the Jaguar F1 Racing constructor on the final day of the sale, 15 November 2004.

Red Bull Racing, currently competing as Oracle Red Bull Racing and also known simply as Red Bull or RBR, is a Formula One racing team, competing under an Austrian racing licence and based in the United Kingdom. It is one of two Formula One teams owned by conglomerate Red Bull GmbH, the other being RB Formula One Team. The Red Bull Racing team has been managed by Christian Horner since its formation in 2005.

Red Bull had Cosworth engines in 2005 and Ferrari engines in 2006. The team used engines supplied by Renault between 2007 and 2018 (from 2016 to 2018, the Renault engine was re-badged TAG Heuer following the breakdown in the relationship between Red Bull and Renault in 2015). During this partnership, they won four successive Drivers' and Constructors' Championship titles from 2010 to 2013, becoming the first Austrian team to win the title.

The Red Bull RB13 is a Formula One racing car designed and constructed by Red Bull Racing to compete during the 2017 FIA Formula One World Championship. The car was driven by Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen. It made its competitive debut at the 2017 Australian Grand Prix.

It is the first British-based foreign F1 car to utilize ExxonMobil fuel and lubricants since 2013, regarded as such due to its constructor Red Bull Racing operating under an Austrian license while simultaneously operating a base in Milton Keynes, along with Toro Rosso STR12 based in Faenza. It is also the first Red Bull F1 car featured with a shark fin since the championship-winning RB6 in 2010.

The Renault engine R.E.17 (rebadged as TAG Heuer F1-2017) is a 1.6 L direct injection V6 turbocharged, limited to 15000 rpm in a mid-mounted and rear-wheel drive layout. It produces 900 bhp.

The pre-season testing proved that the car was a long way behind the two leaders, i.e. Ferrari and Mercedes in both pace and reliability. The team opted for a low drag design philosophy for 2017, similar to the Williams team.

The team achieved 3 victories and reaching 13 podium spots, gathering 368 points in the process, which positioned Red Bull in third place at the constructor's standings.
