For days on end, Goodwood Festival spectators have seen a wide variety of cars, but on Sunday afternoon it was finally time for the highlight of the event: Max Verstappen giving the RB16B the spur. British fans must have enjoyed it, because they could now see with their own eyes the car with which Verstappen kept Lewis Hamilton from winning the world title in 2021. A historic car then!

Footage of the demo run has now been shared by Goodwood. Of course, you can watch them here!

Large delegation from Red Bull Racing

Verstappen was not the only Red Bull driver on show. Also in action were Sergio Perez, Daniel Ricciardo, Mark Webber, Christian Klien, David Coulthard, designer Adrian Newey and even team boss Christian Horner. With the huge delegation, Red Bull celebrated the team's 20th anniversary in Formula 1.
