Red Bull marked their Constructors’ Championship victory in a grand fashion following the conclusion of the Japanese Grand Prix.

The team, based in Milton Keynes, celebrated their three consecutive world titles and the sixth in their history in exuberant style.

Max Verstappen’s triumphant performance, securing a win over the McLaren duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri at Suzuka, sealed the deal.

Verstappen’s victory solidified the team’s impressive season, amassing a remarkable 623 points, clinching 15 victories, and securing a total of 23 podium finishes.

This season stands as one of the most dominant and successful campaigns in the annals of Formula 1 history.

The team commemorated their remarkable achievement with festivities of appropriate grandeur. After the champagne showers in the pit lane subsided and the initial excitement waned, Red Bull team members ventured into Suzuka to prolong the revelry.

Journalist André Venema of Formule1.nl shared a photograph from the paddock, revealing a multitude of Heineken beer crates, ensuring the team was well-prepared for a night filled with revelry and jubilation.

Later in the evening, Christian Horner took to his social media channels to share a video.

In the video, he and several members of the Red Bull crew could be seen enthusiastically singing Oasis’s “Wonderwall,” with the team principal stationed behind the bar, skillfully pouring drinks for his colleagues.

The jubilation for Red Bull’s championship victory wasn’t limited to the team present at the Japanese track.

Even back at the headquarters in Milton Keynes, the celebrations were in full swing, with team members enthusiastically participating in the festivities while donning the team’s fresh commemorative merchandise.

However, the revelry will have to be somewhat short-lived, as Red Bull is gearing up for the upcoming race in Qatar next weekend.

This event marks their next chance to secure additional silverware. Verstappen is poised to claim his third World Championship, with the initial opportunity arriving during the sprint race on Saturday at the Losail Circuit in Doha.

The Dutch driver must secure a finish of sixth place or better to ensure his third consecutive title on Saturday.

However, should he fall short of sealing the championship during the sprint race, he will have another opportunity in the Grand Prix on Sunday.

Verstappen faced challenges from both Piastri and Norris at the beginning of the race. However, he skillfully fended off their advances and successfully navigated through the Safety Car and Virtual Safety Car periods.

He then proceeded to extend his lead, ultimately crossing the finish line first for the 13th time this season.

As a result, Red Bull effectively secured the constructors’ championship, leaving their competitors with no mathematical chance of catching up.

This achievement marked their second consecutive win and highlighted their dominance during F1’s latest ground effect era. It also added to the team’s previous titles, which they clinched in 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013.

The intra-team battle at McLaren was ultimately resolved in favour of Norris. While the British driver initially gained the upper hand at the start, he briefly dropped behind Piastri before ultimately regaining his position.
