Webber survives horrific crash but Vettel wins in Valencia

What a day for Red Bull at the European Formula 1 Grand Prix in Valencia in Spain. An amazing victory for our driver Sebastian Vettel who bounced himself back into contention for the world championship with an easy win in Valencia.

Mark Webber suffered a spectacular accident as he ran on the back of Lotus´s Kovalainen in the early laps. His Red Bull car somersaulted backwards through 180 degrees and landed upside down, flipped back on to its wheels, and then speared headfirst into the tyre wall at very high speed. Fortunately he is absolutely fine, no injuries but his accident underlined not only the dangers of Formula 1 but also the incredible safety technology within each car.

Sebastian Vettel who brilliantly obtained the pole position on Saturday in an exciting qualifying session, led from the beginning and defended his position strongly during the whole race. After some bad luck recently, this victory should be a boost for this confidence.

It was an exciting day in Valencia. With everyone on the Pepe Jeans and Red Bull teams ecstatic over Vettel´s victory and relieved that Webber is fine after his accident.  We look forward now to Silverstone and the UK Grand Prix in just two weeks. Bring it on.

Pepe Jeans takes to the podium in Malaysia

Wahey - the Pepe Jeans-sponsored Red Bull team took first and second places in yesterday's Malaysian Grand Prix.
After a disappointing start to the season with Sebastian Vettel's car limping out of the first two races due to mechanical failures, despite taking the pole in both, yesterday the entire team had plenty to celebrate about.
Vettel shot from third to first on the first lap, which is where he stayed until the end of the race.
We're all looking forward to the next leg on April 18 in China. Fingers crossed the cars keep hold of their mojo.

Vettel goes from pole to pain

In case you didn't already know Pepe Jeans is sponsoring the Formula One Red Bull team this season. So, you can imagine our groans of intense frustration yesterday when, after winning pole position for the second consecutive race of the season, we lost out for the second Grand Prix of the season due to mechanical problems.

In the first Grand Prix in Bahrain, faulty spark plugs led to Sebastian Vettel dropping from first place to fourth, while in Australia it was Vettel's brakes that failed. "I had some sparks coming up from the left wheel," said Vettel. "We didn't know what it was so I wanted to pit. A couple of corners before the end of that lap I had a huge vibration building up and, when I touched the brakes going in to turn 13, I had some sort of failure and ended up in the gravel. It breaks my balls not to win but there's a long way to go in this championship," added Vettel, who ran off the Albert Park track in 2009 while fighting for second with BMW's Robert Kubica.

It's clear that Red Bull has the fastest car on the track,but until the team irons out its reliability issues it doesn't look like Pepe Jeans will be sharing its place on a Formula One podium.
