<h2>Red Bull: 2021 Latest News, Results, Drivers, and Car Updates</h2>
The Red Bull team made their official F1 debut back in 2005. However, the origin of the team themselves can be traced back to 1997. At that time, they were known as the Stewart Racing team, a team owned by F1 legend and triple World Champion, Sir Jackie Stewart.

[caption id="attachment_495654" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="size-full wp-image-495654" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201229114122/2020-12-13T134329Z_1480797127_UP1EGCD124HZO_RTRMADP_3_MOTOR-F1-ABUDHABI.jpg" alt="Red Bull's Max Verstappen leading the pack during the 2020 Abu Dhabi GP" width="1920" height="1120" /> Formula One F1 - Abu Dhabi Grand Prix - Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates - Red Bull's Max Verstappen in action during the race Pool via REUTERS/Giuseppe Cacace[/caption]

He sold the team to the American company, Ford, who rebranded the team to Jaguar Racing. The iconic British manufacturer would race in the sport until the end of the 2004 season. In the following year, Red Bull took up the reins. Though they were, at best, a midfield team in their early days, in 2009, the dynamic shifted completely.

Red Bull’s drivers for the 2021 season are <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/max-verstappen/">Max Verstappen</a> and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sergio-perez/">Sergio Perez</a>. Perez takes the seat from Alex Albon, who is the new test driver for the team.
<h2><strong>Red Bull: On-track Achievements</strong></h2>
They enjoyed a fairly strong start to their debut season when David Coulthard finished fourth in Australia. A year later, he bagged a maiden podium at the 2006 Monaco Grand Prix. A few more intermittent podiums followed until 2009, when the team bagged their first win, courtesy of Sebastian Vettel.

That year, the team amassed six wins and finished second in the Championship. Then came the magnum opus, four Drivers' and Constructors' titles on the trot, all thanks to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/">Sebastian Vettel</a>.

Red Bull's dominant run in F1 ended with the introduction of the turbo-hybrid era in Formula 1. While the team still clinch the odd pole or win, they are yet to replicate their supremacy from the early 2010s.

As of September 2020, the team had 64 race wins, 182 podiums, and four Drivers' and Constructors' Championships in F1. The team has entered 304 races and amassed over a massive tally of 5043.5 points.
<h2>Does Red Bull have two F1 teams?</h2>
Part of what makes Red Bull such a unique F1 entity is their connection to Scuderia AlphaTauri. AlphaTauri, formerly known as Toro Rosso, is the Austrian outfit's Italian sister team.

Red Bull Racing doesn't necessarily 'own' AlphaTauri. Technically, both teams are owned by the famed drinks company - Red Bull GmbH. The Austrian company's founder - Dietrich Mateschitz, purchased Red Bull (formerly known as Jaguar), followed by Toro Rosso (formerly known as Minardi), as part of a collaboration with former F1 driver Gerhard Berger.

Unofficially, AlphaTauri functions as a proving ground for Red Bull's younger drivers who have the potential to step up and drive for Red Bull Racing.
<h2>How much did Red Bull spend on F1?</h2>
According to <a href="https://www.racefans.net/2020/01/02/the-cost-of-f1-2019-part-two-what-the-top-teams-spent/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reports</a>, the team spent $335 million in their F1 ventures for the 2019 season.
<h2>How much does Red Bull earn from F1?</h2>
As a reward for its efforts, the Milton-Keynes based outfit received approximately <a href="https://www.racefans.net/2020/01/02/the-cost-of-f1-2019-part-two-what-the-top-teams-spent/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">$335 million</a> in prize money for the 2019 season. The Austrian outfit did not report a healthy profit, but thankfully, it wasn't a loss.

The FOM split from the $335 million is reportedly $150 million (including bonuses).
<h2>What does Aston Martin do for Red Bull?</h2>
In late 2017, the team announced Aston Martin as the team's title sponsor as part of a technical partnership. The Milton-Keynes outfit have worked in close collaboration with Aston Martin to produce the hyper-car, Valkyrie.

<em>"The relationship between Aston Martin and The Team began in 2016 after the two companies combined cutting edge F1 technology and Aston Martin's signature sports car design to produce a ground breaking hypercar,"</em> reads a <a href="https://www.redbull.com/int-en/redbullracing/driving-future-innovation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">statement</a> from Red Bull.

In early 2020, the team announced that they would be ending their title partnership with Aston Martin following the 2020 F1 season. However, the Austrian outfit will work with the British manufacturer in delivering its hyper-car collaboration.
<h2>Who owns Red Bull Racing?</h2>
The F1 team are owned by the parent company and famed drinks brand- Red Bull GmbH. Red Bull was founded by Dietrich Mateschitz and Chaleo Yoovidhya. Currently, Mateschitz and Chalerm Yoovidhya own the brand.
<h2><strong>Red Bull’s Sponsors</strong></h2>
The team's title sponsor for 2020 is British car manufacturer, Aston Martin. Team partners <a href="https://www.redbull.com/int-en/redbullracing/partners" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">include</a> Rauch, Puma, Tag Heuer, W66, DITA, Pirelli, MyWorld, Piquadro, Iris, and AlphaTauri.

<h2><strong>Charities</strong></h2>
One of the main charities that the team support is the <a href="https://www.wingsforlife.com/en/supporters/">Wings for Life</a> charity. This organization is dedicated to Spinal Cord research. Wings for Life focuses on researching treatments for the central nervous system. These treatments can either be therapies or drugs, aimed at healing.

<h2><strong>Christian Horner: 2021 Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Christian Horner is the present team boss of the <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/red-bull/">Aston Martin Red Bull team</a>. The Briton has been with the team since their debut in 2005.

Ahead of his career with the Milton-Keynes based outfit, Horner functioned in the world of Formula 3000. He retired from racing at 25, under his own discretion, considering his speed. Horner let himself focus on developing the Arden team, for whom he had prior raced.
<h2><strong>On-track </strong><b>Achievements</b></h2>
Admittedly, Horner was unsuccessful in the racing scene. He recorded the highest position of 6th in 1997 with the Arden team.

After retiring from racing, Horner signed Viktor Maslov and Marc Goossens in the 1999 FIA F3000 season. Arden also competed in Italian F3000 in the year 2000, winning 3 races and finishing second in the Championship.

After parting company with Lukoil, a new driver line-up was named for 2002. Tomáš Enge and Björn Wirdheim took 5 victories and a title for Enge. Arden also won the Team Championship that year, followed by many more.
<h2>Christian Horner in Red Bull</h2>
It wasn't long before Horner knocked on the doors of Formula One. He entered discussions with Eddie Jordan regarding buying the Jordan Grand Prix; however, those talks fell flat. In 2004, Red Bull purchased the Jaguar F1 Team to become Red Bull Racing.

In January 2005, Horner was appointed to lead the team, effectively recording his name in the history books as the youngest Team Principal. Under him, drivers David Coulthard and Christian Klien finished 4th and 7tj in Australia, scoring 34 points in the season.

He also played a key role in recruiting McLaren technical guru, Adrian Newey. Newey was later announced as the team's Chief Technical Officer in November 2005.

2006 was a transitional year, and though the car was unreliable, it grabbed a maiden podium finish at the <a title="Monaco Grand Prix" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monaco_Grand_Prix">Monaco Grand Prix</a>. In utmost happiness, Christian Horner jumped into a swimming pool, one of his most iconic moments to date.

The team ranked 2nd in the 2009 Constructors' Championship with Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber. The racers achieved 2nd and 4th position, respectively, in the Drivers' Championship title race. In addition, they bagged 6 titles altogether.

In 2010, the team won their first Constructors' Championship with one race to spare. Sebastian Vettel won the Drivers' Championship title at the last race of the season, becoming the youngest World Champion.

At 36, Horner was the youngest Team Principal to have won a Formula 1 Constructors' Championship, forging his name in the record books yet again.

In 2011, the team won their second Constructors' Championship with three races to spare.

Sebastian Vettel became the world's youngest champion twice. Soon, Vettel grabbed 2 more titles for the Austrian outfit.
<h2>Christain Horner: 2021 Net Worth</h2>
Horner holds an honorary rank of an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE). He received the award in 2013.

The Red Bull Team Principal reportedly holds a <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/race-car-drivers/christian-horner-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">net worth</a> of $50 million and brings home a salary of $10 million annually.
<h2>Best Moments of Christian Horner</h2>

<h2><strong>Foundations and Charity Work</strong></h2>
On the account of philanthropy, Christian Horner presently holds the rank of Ambassador in the Wings For Life Foundation.

The primary aim of the foundation is to raise awareness regarding spinal cord injury. In addition, funding the foundation’s crucial research into finding a cure is the other motto.
<h2>How to contact Christian Horner</h2>
The current team boss of Red Bull is clearly active on various social media platforms.

He keeps his followers updated on regular intervals with his personal opinions and musings through his profile on <a href="https://instagram.com/christianhornerofficial?igshid=16ypqpxqhv80r">Instagram.</a>

Christian Horner

<h3><strong>Max Verstappen 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h3>
Max Verstappen was a child prodigy who was roped in by Red Bull F1 at a very young age. He moved into F1 directly from F3 at the age of 17 during the 2015 Australian Grand Prix, partnering <a href="http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/carlos-sainz/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Carlos Sainz Jr</a> in Toro Rosso. For the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix, he was promoted to Red Bull, a race that he won. There was a lot of hype around his entry into Formula One and it was completely justified.

He has always been classified as the next big thing in Formula One and many anticipate him to do what Lewis Hamilton is doing in the current F1 era. Such is his might and skill, that former F1 drivers, Jenson Button and <a href="http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/fernando-alonso/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fernando Alonso,</a> <a href="https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.out-of-this-world-verstappen-on-same-level-as-schumacher-and-alonso-says.6BLkA9yf5x1Qy1rHLyRQPW.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">labeled</a> <a href="https://www.planetf1.com/news/alonso-verstappen-is-the-best-driver-in-f1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">him as one of the best F1 drivers on the grid</a>. But his skill also comes with him being a hot head often <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/arrogant-comments-from-max-verstappen-in-the-press-conference-lead-to-the-fia-investigation-and-further-penalty/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">known to say</a> controversial statements or target teams/players directly.

<h3><strong>Max Verstappen: Stats and On-track </strong><b>Achievements</b></h3>
Considering the age at which he joined Formula One, he has multiple records to his name. He is the youngest driver to start a race, score points, be a race leader, step on the podium, and set the fastest lap. Sadly, the one record that eluded him was the Youngest pole sitter, a record that still belongs to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/sebastian-vettel/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Sebastian Vettel</a>.

With his race win at the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix, he also became the youngest driver to win a Grand Prix. 2019 has been his best season in F1 so far. He had to take a leadership role in the team with Daniel Ricciardo departing to Renault. Max Verstappen took 3 race victories and 2 pole positions to bring glory to both Red Bull and an ailing Honda.

So far, Max Verstappen has scored 10 wins and 42 podiums in his F1 career from over a 119 race starts.
<h3>Max Verstappen: Net Worth 2021</h3>
Naturally, the kind of personality Verstappen is, he always finds himself in the news good or bad. But at the end of the day, Verstappen delivers on-track and Red Bull doesn't want to lose their star driver.  The Dutchman is contracted to Red Bull until the end of 2023.

Despite his young age and relatively short career, his net worth stands at almost <a href="https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/race-car-drivers/max-verstappen-net-worth/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">$60 million</a> thanks to multiple endorsements.
<h3>Best Moments of Max Verstappen</h3>
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B4pF4bMwYYI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
<h3>Personal life</h3>
Max Verstappen's father - Jos Verstappen was an F1 driver who currently manages him. Jos' F1 career wasn't quite as successful as his son's. Verstappen's sister, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/victoriaverstappen/?hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Victoria</a>, enjoys a healthy following on social media and had her own fashion line.

Verstappen was in a relationship with <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/8531890/max-verstappen-girlfriend-dilara-sanlik-f1-red-bull/">Dilara Sanlik</a>. At 22, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Verstappen is unmarried.

As of 17th January 2021, Max Verstappen is believed to be in a relationship with Kelly Piquet.

<h3><b>Max Verstappen: Endorsements</b></h3>
While his annual salary at Red Bull puts him among the top brass of the sport, his fan following is topped only by Lewis Hamilton himself. He has an army of fans who call themselves the Orange Army and are present wearing Orange T-shirts at almost all European races. This much popularity makes him very desirable among brands, thus making him one of the most marketable drivers on the grid. His <a href="https://www.verstappen.com/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">main sponsors</a> are Jumbo Supermarkets, Ziggo, Red Bull, <a href="https://www.g-star.com/en_be/shop/men/max_verstappen_collection" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">G-Star</a> Raw, and CarNext.com. It is unclear how much he is worth via endorsements.

<h3><strong>Max Verstappen: Foundations and Charity Work</strong></h3>
Like most F1 drivers, Verstappen has participated in <a href="https://verstappen.com/en/gallerydetail/254" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">charity football events</a>. He is also part of the <a href="https://www.charitystars.com/collection/max-verstappen-en/closed" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Charity Stars</a> and <a href="https://www.sportvideos.tv/max-verstappen-kitz-red-bull-charity-race-2017-f1-and-motogp-stars-on-skis/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">raced in a Red Bull-sponsored charity event in 2017</a>. Beyond that, not much is known.

In early 2020, Verstappen <a href="https://www.grandprix.com/news/verstappen-donates-to-koala-fundraiser.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">donated</a> an unspecified amount to a fundraiser as part of an aid for Koalas affected by bushfires in Australia.
<h3>How to contact Max Verstappen</h3>
Fans can contact Max Verstappen through a variety of channels, including social media accounts and his official website.

Verstappen has an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/maxverstappen1/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/Max33Verstappen?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Twitter</a> account, which he uses to connect with fans and post regular updates.

<h2><strong>Sergio Perez 2021: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h2>
Sergio Perez debuted in Formula One in 2011 with the Sauber team. The Mexican's signing was a result of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/sauber/">Sauber</a> announcing a partnership with telecommunications company Telmex.

He stayed with the Swiss outfit for two years and jumped ship to <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mclaren/">McLaren</a> in 2013, but suffered a very poor run that year.

A year later, he moved to Force India and stayed there until this season. He partnered Nico Hulkenberg for three years until the latter left for Renault. He then partnered Esteban Ocon for two years before Ocon was ousted in favor of Lance Stroll for 2019.

The Mexican will drive for Red Bull alongside Max Verstappen in 2021.

Sergio Perez scored a podium in just his second season in Formula One, in the second race of 2012. During his stint with the Woking-based outfit, he could only manage a position as high as fifth. When he moved to Force India, he scored five podiums for the Indian outfit.

His highest position in the Drivers' Championship was seventh in 2016 and 2017. In his partnership with Hulkenberg, the two managed to help the team finish fourth in the 2016 Championship. Perez and Ocon repeated the feat once again in 2017.

Perez out qualified and outpaced his younger teammate Stroll to finish 1oth in the Drivers' Standings, scoring a respectable 52 points in a car that wasn't very competitive.

However, Perez is facing a much stronger challenge from the Canadian in 2020. With the RP20 being strongly influenced by last year's championship-winning car, Racing Point has zoomed ahead of the midfield with Perez and Stroll scoring points consistently.

The Mexican was forced to miss two races this season due to COVID-19 but bounced back with a stellar performance at the Spanish Grand Prix. Pérez won his first race at the Sakhir Grand Prix.

On the first lap, Pérez was hit by Leclerc and went from 2nd place to 18th and last. On lap 64 took the lead and won the race ahead of Esteban Ocon and teammate Stroll. This was the first win for a Mexican driver since Pedro Rodríguez won the 1970 Belgian Grand Prix 50 years prior.

Perez finished fourth in the Drivers' Championship in 2020 season.
