Red Bull took both titles and an enormous haul of points in F1 2022, but plain sailing it was not.
Red Bull’s season of excellence punctuated by memorable moments of controversyRed Bull swept the board in 2022 but it was certainly not a season of plain sailing for the Milton Keynes outfit.
2022 was the perfect combination of a confident and matured Max Verstappen combined with the brilliance of Adrian Newey, who was given a new set of regulations and was able to lead the design of a near perfect car. Those reliability issues would make another appearance in Australia. Verstappen suffered a fuel leak and made it seem as if both Championships were Ferrari’s to lose., but after the trip to Melbourne, something clicked for both him and Red Bull. Verstappen would win the next three races to move above Leclerc in the standings. By the time of the British Grand Prix, Verstappen had a 49-point lead over the Ferrari driver.
Finshing 18 seconds ahead of second-place Perez, it was about as dominant as a win can be. The Belgian Grand Prix proved to be not only one of the performances of the season but one of the finest from the Dutchman’s already remarkable career. The saga exploded with rumours flying of what punishment would be heading Red Bull’s away until shortly after the Japanese Grand Prix, the FIA confirmed the team had committed a minor overspend.
