Speaking on his exclusive season with F1’s most thrilling team, this is an evening that you won’t want to miss.
In 2025, critically acclaimed writer Matt Majendie spent a season behind the scenes with Formula One team Red Bull Racing during one of the most controversial and dramatic years in the history of the sport.
No journalist has been given the level of access that Majendie enjoyed as he found himself walking the secretive corridors of the hi-tech team factory in the UK; trackside at race after race; inside the garage, on the driver’s luxury yachts, and even racing the streets of Monaco with Max Verstappen, the greatest driver of this, and perhaps any, era, as he chases history.
Join Majendie on the pit wall as Christian Horner’s dominant reign as team supremo finally runs its course, as drivers come and go – youngster Liam Lawson brutally axed after just two races – and Verstappen wrestles with the limitations of a car that refuses to be tamed, fighting with rivals like Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, taking the season down to its final minutes.
From mechanics to engineers, race strategists to team leaders, head honchos to the thousands who ensure the machine turns, this is F1 racing as you’ve never seen it.
Every book + ticket comes with a copy of Inside Red Bull Racing, that Matt will sign and dedicate on the day.
