The six key Red Bull F1 wins that highlight its evolution from 2009 to 2023

By:

There have been some ups and downs since Red Bull emerged as a Formula 1 winner in 2009, but its story is largely one of becoming an increasingly powerful F1 force. Having reached the 100 wins landmark in Canada last weekend, we chart its path to joining that exclusive club

"The feeling of that first victory was incredible," recalls Christian Horner. "I thought, 'If we don't ever achieve anything else, we've won a race on merit – not got lucky, we've had to go out and do it the hard way'." 

From the 2009 Chinese Grand Prix and Sebastian Vettel leading home Mark Webber in the Shanghai rain to Max Verstappen leading every lap in winning the 2023 Canadian GP, Red Bull has reached 100 Formula 1 race victories. It does so in record time, a 14-year spell, but is headed by Mercedes' 207-race span to Red Bull's 355.
