Red Bull relocated F1 title celebrations to avoid sticky pitbox

After Max Verstappen secured his third world drivers championship title, Red Bull celebrated by taking a team picture in front of their Qatar pitbox, before moving further down the pitlane to engage in more exuberant celebrations involving the throwing of Red Bull drinks. The change in location was made to avoid any potential FIA sanction for altering their own pitbox, as it could have been seen as a breach of F1’s sporting rules.
