From the moment Red Bull first turned a wheel in F1, 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. Led by team principal Christian Horner, its first season represented a bright start and at the end of 2005 lured in respected designer Adrian Newey. Newey's experience would have a major impact in the future. Under his guidance, the technical departments began to put in place systems which would yield benefits. From 2006 onwards, Red Bull took the next step forward with consistent podium-finishes. For 2009, Red Bull eventually developed a race-wining car claiming its first win in China and strong performances ensured that the team sealed second in the constructors' championship and second in the drivers' battle for Sebastian Vettel. The following year saw the team realise the dream it had begun with the squad securing its first constructors' title and Vettel taking the drivers' championship. A title double after just six seasons in the sport! The success provided the springboard for a dominant 2011 propelling to a second team title and Vettel to another crown and a host of new records, a feat repeated in a hard-fought 2012 season. Red Bull has come a long way in a short time. Founded with the goal of doing things a bit differently, its six titles in just eight seasons are testament to its success in meeting that target with the future looking brighter.
