How much of the Channel 4 'Red Bull bias' is down to Coulthard and Webber - and how much is it Red Bull making themselves available more than other teams? I think a lot of it is Red Bull are just very good at putting themselves out there. In the build up to the weekend Red Bull did a race around Goodwood against a black cab, routemaster bus, Spitfire etc etc - how many other teams did something similar? They do a lot of F1 demo runs in cities and countries that don't have F1 races - other teams don't do that (certainly not to the same extent). I'm no Red Bull fanboy - I have a particularly low opinion of Helmut Marko (I'm sure he'll be devestated to learn ) but you do have to admit that they use their various assests well for 'publicity stunts'.
