Growing Wings: The inside story of Red Bull Racing

Ben Hunt

It is another F1 book and a great insight into how the Red Bull Racing team came about. Ben Hunt covers the first 20 years of Red Bull Racing succinctly. From how the team rose from the ashes of what was Jaguar Racing up to the end of the 2023 season. The ups and downs from getting the first car to the grid to becoming the most dominant and winningest team ever in one season—21 wins in 22 starts, 19 of which for Max Verstappen delivering both the drivers and constructors championships.

This is no rose-tinted reflection, Hunt shares some of the troubles and failures through the seasons. It’s an easy read, even if you’re new to F1, the author explains rules and situations in a non-condescending way.
