Red Bull took its 117th grand prix victory at the Chinese Grand Prix at the weekend as Max Verstappen cruised to another trip to the top spot on the F1 podium.
The Dutchman was unchallenged en route to the chequered flag as he continued his dominant start to the 2024 campaign.
Verstappen and Red Bull have enjoyed phenomenal success over the last two years following the introduction of new ground-effect regulations, and it now looks set to maintain its run this season.
With its win at the Shanghai International Circuit, Red Bull has now won the most races in F1 since the 2005 Australian Grand Prix - the race at which the Milton Keynes-based squad made its debut.
It was previously tied with Mercedes, which enjoyed its own period of domination from 2014 to 2020 before Red Bull stepped to the front of the field.
It should be noted that Red Bull's first six wins came during the 2009 campaign, before Mercedes' return to the grid as a constructor in 2010.
While Mercedes, though, has been listed as the most successful team over the last 19 years for some time, that accolade has now been taken by Red Bull.
