Red Bull Racing is known for choosing mostly young drivers in their lineup. However, their newest recruit, Sergio Perez, is the third oldest driver to ever drive for the team.
In an Instagram post, we list the ten oldest drivers who have driven for Red Bull Racing. Remarkably, much of the list was by no means old, with Sergio Perez making an appearance in third place at 31.
David Coulthard
The oldest driver to have driven for Red Bull Racing is David Coulthard. He was 37 years old when he left the team, ending his Formula One racing career.
Mark Webber
Mark Webber was also 37 years old when he quit, a few years after David Coulthard. After this, the team took a different path with younger drivers.
Sergio Perez
However, the third oldest Red Bull driver has now joined the team: Sergio Perez, who recently turned 31, will be Max Verstappen's new teammate in 2021. At 31, however, he is still six years younger than Coulthard and Webber were when they quit.
