Red Bull Racing raced to their fourth one-two of the season in Brazil, enabling them to clinch the Constructors World Championship with one race still to go.

It hasn’t been a flawless season as such for Red Bull. In fact, no one would have predicted them winning the championship after the start they had to the 2010 season.

In the season opener at The Bahrain International Circuit, Sebastian Vettel who had P1, suffered from reliability trouble, as his engine lost power and he eventually surrendered his lead to the Ferraris, falling to 4th. Mark Webber, meanwhile, suffered his millionth event of bad luck before the race had even begun, after being held up in qualifying. A 4th and 8th was horrible for what could have been a dominant one-two finish.

Australia was an even more embarrassing result, with Vettel retiring after a brake failure. Webber was involved in a race-long battle with Alonso, Massa and Hamilton, and topped off his troubles by crashing into Hamilton in the dying few laps, dropping him to 9th place.

Things took a turn in Malaysia, with the team winning their first one-two of the season. They looked to carry on their form into China, but for a wrong tyre call which dropped them to sixth and eighth positions, after a one-two in qualifying.

The inexperience of a team that made its foray into Formula One just five years ago was showing. From spark plug problems, to brake problems, to engine blows, the two RB6s have been there, done that.  

The two drivers, Vettel and Webber, haven’t helped their team’s cause much, with Webber claiming that Red Bull favoured Vettel, the younger of the two, even though the former is the more experienced.

Vettel’s inexperience clearly showed in Turkey, when he crashed into Webber who was leading the race, causing the Australian to drop valuable points and finish third.

However, there is absolutely no deny...
