The 2023 F1 season witnessed mega dominance by Red Bull who continued its fine form from 2022, while many other teams had vastly different campaigns to the year before.
Aston Martin and Williams both moved up the championship order quite significantly, while Alpine and Haas dropped down.
But many others were up and down, too. So how did each F1 team perform in the 2023 season compared to 2022 and were there any shocks on the grid?
*Wins, pole positions and podiums don’t include sprint races
Red Bull had a truly dominant 2022 season where it clinched the constructors’ championship with three rounds left, while Max Verstappen won a record-breaking 15 grands prix in a year. Considering such success, the question was how could Red Bull improve for 2023 - but that was something they managed to do.
The RB19 broke several records which arguably makes it the most dominant car in F1 history, where 21 grands prix wins helped Red Bull score over double the points tally of its runner-up Mercedes. Key to Red Bull’s dominance was once again Verstappen, who broke his own record for most wins in a season (19) plus many others to clinch a third consecutive drivers’ title.
