Red Bull

Oracle Red Bull Racing are an Austrian-registered Formula 1 constructor based in Milton Keynes, England, running their own Red Bull Powertrains power units and fielding Max Verstappen (car #1) and Isack Hadjar (car #6) in 2026. Founded in 2005, the team has accumulated six Constructors' Championships and 130 race victories, dominating with Sebastian Vettel from 2010 to 2013 and reasserting supremacy with back-to-back Constructors' titles in 2022 and 2023, with Max Verstappen delivering four consecutive Drivers' Championships from 2021 to 2024.

For 2026, Red Bull field Max Verstappen and rookie Isack Hadjar. Verstappen, a four-time World Champion with over 70 race victories, remains the driver every team measures themselves against. Hadjar, promoted from the Red Bull junior programme after an impressive Formula 2 campaign, brings genuine speed and is expected to develop into a future title contender while supporting the team's championship campaigns.

Red Bull's history in F1 spans 130 race victories and six Constructors' titles, with legendary drivers including Sebastian Vettel, Daniel Ricciardo, and Max Verstappen all winning races for the team. Their dominance in 2023, when they won 21 of 22 races, stands as one of the most remarkable seasons in the sport's history. The team's operational strengths in pit stop execution, race strategy, and in-season development have been consistently outstanding.

The 2026 regulations bring Red Bull's biggest technical gamble: their own power unit. Having built Red Bull Powertrains at their Milton Keynes factory, they enter this era with an unproven engine for the first time. The increased emphasis on electrical deployment and reduced fuel flow in the new regulations represent uncharted territory, though the investment in facilities and engineering talent has been substantial.

Red Bull are based in Milton Keynes, England, though registered as an Austrian constructor. The Red Bull Ring at Spielberg hosts their home race, the Austrian Grand Prix, in June.
