Red Bull co-founder Dietrich Mateschitz dead at 78, according to ... (NBC Sports)

Dietrich Mateschitz, the co-founder of Red Bull who became a major player in motorsports and other sports, is dead at 78, according to the F1 team.

Later that year, he then also bought Minardi and renamed it Toro Rosso, astutely using the team as a feed team for Red Bull. German league regulations prevented the company from naming the team Red Bull Leipzig – its name in German, RasenBallsport, means “grass ball sport Leipzig” but the club just refers to itself as RB Leipzig. Red Bull says Mateschitz worked on the formula for three years before the modified drink was launched under its new name in his native Austria in 1987. Red Bull operates soccer teams in top divisions across Austria, Germany, Brazil and the United States. With the growing success of Red Bull, he significantly expanded his investments in sports. He was always enthusiastic, encouraging and supportive on the good days and the bad days,” Horner said.

Red Bull punishment delayed after Mateschitz death (BBC Sport)

Red Bull's punishment for breaking Formula 1's financial rules is on hold following the death of the team's co-owner Dietrich Mateschitz.

We expected certain things to be potentially challenged or clarified, as is the process in a brand new set of regulations. That's where the interpretation comes from and our view is that our relevant costs are within the cap. "Our submission was significantly below the cap. One of the reasons why (is) in this year we've all dealt with the inflation issue. Details of the breach agreement offered to Red Bull have not been made public. McLaren Racing chief executive officer Zak Brown said: "We asked lots of questions, we were right near the limit.

“It’s tremendously disappointing for a fellow competitor to accuse you of cheating. In Austin for this weekend’s today’s US Grand Prix Red Bull’s breach overshadowed events on the track. For those who love tires (or, as it’s spelled in proper English, “tires”), all the top drivers are on mediums. [Formula One](https://www.theguardian.com/sport/formulaone) today, it seems appropriate to note the passing of Dietrich Mateschitz, the builder of the Red Bull empire of energy drinks and sports. He’ll have a full-time gig next year as long as he gets enough points toward his “Super Licence.” (Funny – in most US states, getting points on your license is a bad thing.) So back on track, so to speak – we’re getting late in the season now, so we should all be captivated by this thrilling title race between Max Verstappen and …

But even as I say it, I'm like, Carlos Sainz has been driving so strong, he's amazing, Lando is starting to peak at the right time, so it's hard to say. He'll be like, ‘I was in Monaco in 1999 and this happened’, and having that experience of a guy knowing how hard it was and doing it at the highest level and succeeding, it's really, really cool. Max [Verstappen] looks really unbeatable, we all see it week to week, he just finds a way to drive faster, drive smarter, just make all the right moves. ESPN's taking a greater interest in it as well, and now I think that Amazon getting involved, I think it's going to change the game. I know Danny [Ricciardo] a little bit and I love him but I still have so much respect for him and what he does. I have more and more friends who say, "Don't tell me what happened because I'm recording the race and I want to watch it later." There's so much fun to be had in Formula 1, it's such a great thing, so I think we're trying to bring that kind of energy. So they heard Danny Ricciardo on Smartless, then subsequent to that, when Amp decided that they wanted to get into this space in F1, obviously they got Mika Hakkinen, who's a two-time champ and a legend, then they got other sports people like Katie Osborne and Michelle Beadle, who can speak to sports and know how to drive sports commentary, and The Kid Mero. And I'm learning on the job and hopefully people listening are kind of learning with me. Like a lot of people, Formula 1 was something that kind of existed out there and that I would sort of not really pay attention to. It was so immediate that I found myself looking at, not just the races, but I've got to watch qualis, I've got to see all of it, because you get into the drama of it all. What you might not associate with Will Arnett is a love of Formula 1.

Verstappen gets record-tying 13th F1 win at US Grand Prix (1 News)

Max Verstappen delivered a victory to honour the memory of Red Bull team founder and owner Dietrich Mateschitz.

“This one is definitely dedicated to Dietrich,” Verstappen said. He added a second team to the Red Bull stable when he bought the Minardi program renamed it Toro Rosso in 2006 to be a program for training younger drivers. Mateschitz, the Austrian billionaire co-founder of the Red Bull energy drinks global empire, bought the Jaguar team in 2004 and rebranded it as Red Bull in 2005. Verstappen vowed he’d give everything to get the win to honor him. “The only thing we could do today was win.” But Verstappen fought back to pass last season’s rival for the championship on lap 50 of 56.

Red Bull was unable to beat Mercedes to the constructors' championship last year despite Verstappen claiming the drivers' title. "I think Dietrich would have quite enjoyed that race, from above, to see us overtake a Mercedes with five, six laps to go to win the constructors championship.

After a long time in the Mercedes-enforced wilderness, Red Bull Racing is emphatically back at the top of the pile in Formula 1, completing the 2022 ...

Pitt was on location in part to work on his upcoming Formula 1 film, which will be directed by Top Gun: Maverick’s Joseph Kosinski and co-produced by Lewis Hamilton. “We’ve got a bit to look at to understand the pace,” his engineer, Tom Stallard, said in downcast tones over team radio on the cool-down lap. “The stewards determine that the driver of Car 18 was predominantly to blame.” Alonso’s Alpine was launched into the air, thudding heavily back to earth and sliding into the barriers. He second pit stop dropped him to the back of the back, and despite spending most of that final stint in clear air, his pace was woeful. Could it win a race this season? “It was clear to us that the driver of Car 18 made a late move in reacting to the overtaking attempt by the driver of Car 14 by moving to the left,” said the ruling. It was a reminder of what Formula 1 is set to lose once Vettel hangs up the helmet at the end of the season — and, perhaps more to the point, how good he can be when the car and the team is working for him, which hasn’t always been the case dating back even to his seasons at Ferrari. Incredibly it was able to continue to pit lane, and in what the Spaniard is sure to add to his burgeoning portfolio of best-ever drives, he brought it home in seventh place. Alonso was closing in fast on Stroll down the back straight and at the final moment pulled out of his slipstream to make the pass on the run to turn 11. And it should be remembered that Hamilton was only in contention to begin with because of that pit stop mistake, because the sister Red Bull Racing and Ferrari cars started in penalised grid positions and because Carlos Sainz was punted out of the race by his Mercedes teammate. A Red Bull-backed driver dominating the race in a Red Bull-owned team — having cut his teeth, of course, in the Red Bull-owned junior team — was a reminder of just how influential Mateschitz had been in Formula 1 across the last two decades.

DRIVERS 1 – Max VERSTAPPEN (Red Bull Racing) 2 – Lewis HAMILTON (Mercedes)3 – Charles LECLERC (Ferrari) PARC FERMÉ INTERVIEWS(Conducted by David Coulthard)

MV: Yeah, it was just a rotary change which then influenced a bit the throttle pickup which can happen so we just went back to the other setting and it was a bit better. I stayed a little bit on the edge of the city, overlooking the city every day, and it's definitely a place I think I could live. But I'm confident we can do that because I know how hard we are working and I'm confident that we are working in the right direction. I will do everything for it to not happen and we are working as a team for it to not happen obviously. And there's a challenge of keeping the DNA of the sport, adding the show, and I think this has been done extremely well. You know if Charles was there, if Pérez was there, for example, it would have been a different race, because they would have been ahead of us, we would have been on the third row. And also, can you tell us a little bit about the brake drama that was going on prior to the start of the race? And I think there's a culture in the US also to make the sport a show. I think in the first stint he was controlling the pace and it was very difficult to hold on to him. He was so instrumental and, of course, it will continue, but we really wanted to have a good result today and yeah, this is of course amazing. But yeah, we need to keep working in order to challenge them a bit more towards the end of the races. Q: Yeah, we're seeing behind on the screen the battles that you had, first of all with Charles and the Ferrari, and then of course, Lewis here on the brakes.
