It's no secret that Red Bull's success mantra lies in its RBZ7. Here's all about the mean machine....

The RB7, the Red Bull Racing car for the 2011 F1 season is a car alright. It has 4 tyres, an engine, a gearbox, a front and rear wing and everything else that every other car on the F1 grid has, so then why is it that the RB7 is winning more races than its competitors? The RB7 has notched up 255 points for the Red Bull Racing team and along the way has clinched pole position at all the 7 Grand Prix held this season. Sebastian Vettel has raced his RB7 to 5 victories this season scoring 161 driver's championship points en route. So why is the Red Bull Racing car better than all the others? What makes it different?

Adrian Newey
The Chief Technical Officer of the Red Bull Racing team and the brain behind the designs of the Red Bull Racing car is where the credit should start. For the lesser known, Newey is one of the only two designers to have won Constructor's Championships with 3 different Formula1 teams. He has dominated F1 car design since the 1990s and 2000s and has won championships with WilliamsF1, Mclaren and now Red Bull Racing. Michael Schumacher is regarded as a Formula1 legend for having won 7 World Driver's Championship titles. It is little known that Newey too has 7 World Constructor's Championships to his creditu00a0-- 5 with WilliamsF1, 1 each with Mclaren and Red Bull Racing.
