Mercedes enjoyed a sustained period of superiority in F1 at the start of the V6 hybrid era, going on to win 15 of the 16 world 🐈titles on offer between 2014 and 2021, including an unprecedented eight consecutive constructors’ crowns. 

During that time, Red Bull struggled for success with an un꧑competitive Renault power unit, before they gambled on a switch to Honda engines from 2019. 

Under Honda power, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen claimed Red Bull’s first world title since 2013 in his controversial 2021 triumph over168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Lewis Hamilton, before the Milton Keynes took both world champio༒nshipജs in a dominant 2022 campaign. 

Asked what he learnt during the pe🌼riod of Mercedes’ dominance, Red Bull’s technical mastermind Adrian Newey said: "Have a decent engine. 

“We went into the hybrid era, and Renault got it wrong, so that was pretty depressing because you realised that in your foreseeable future if you do a spectacular job, you might snatch the odd win, but you're never goingꦦ to win a championship. 

“That was a reset. I think oneꦰ of the strengths of the team is that we put our heads down and got through that period so that when once we had a good power unit again with a partnership with Honda, we were able to respond.”

Responding to the sam𓆉e question, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said: “The most important tꦰhing was keeping the team together, focusing on the things we could control. 

“We had great loyalty during that period. Honda shared the same passion, we took that risk, and we were then a🎀ble to really startܫ to get the foundations in place for a championship challenge.” 

And Horner praised Newey’s influence behind Red Bull’s F1 success, describing him as the “conductor of the 𒆙technical orchestra”. 

“Adrian is the only bloke that can see air,” Horner added. “He ♐lives in The Matrix, and he's been the conductorꦡ of the technical orchestra for all these years now, but he's still very hands-on and at his drawing board. 

“I had to argue with Ron Dennis to wrestle him out of McLaren. We've obviousꦚly had highs and lows during all these years, but 💖it's always been fun. 

“We've always had great support fro✤m the group, from Dietrich [Mateschitz] and from Helmut [Marko], and that's enabled us t💟o just focus on being the best race team that we can be."
