Red Bull has suffered a challenging first half of the 2025 F1
season, with Christian Horner having been axed as team principal
after over 20 years. Remarkably, the Milton Keynes-based outfit
has scored 201 points less than after the opening 12 rounds last
year, whilst McLaren has scored 165 more. Red Bull finds itself
fourth in the constructors' standings on 172 points, 165 of which
have been scored by Max Verstappen. Whilst other teams on the grid
have scored fewer points than this time last year, no squad has
suffered as dramatic a drop-off as Red Bull. Despite sitting
second in the standings, Ferrari has scored 80 points less than
after 12 races in 2024, with Mercedes having scored 11 fewer.
McLaren is the only team to have experienced a triple-digit rise,
to the extent that Red Bull's record-breaking 860 points from 2023
is within reach. Elsewhere, Williams and Stake F1 have both
improved on its points totals from the first half of last season,
whilst Aston Martin has experienced a marginal drop. View the
