Since 2014
Mercedes vs. Red Bull
The turbo-hybrid era's defining rivalry
The Mercedes-Red Bull rivalry defined the turbo-hybrid era of Formula 1 and produced the sport's most controversial championship battle in decades. Mercedes dominated from 2014 to 2020, winning seven consecutive Constructors' Championships with Lewis Hamilton as their star driver. Red Bull, led by the brilliant Max Verstappen, spent years as the only team capable of consistently challenging the Silver Arrows before finally breaking through in 2021.
