It is actually a slightly confusing title, as it's principally a biography rather than the workshop manual (which also exists) https://www.amazon.co.uk/Red-Bull-Racing-Manual-Championship-winning/dp/0857330993

Granted, this isn't representative of the deluge of memes in other subreddits. But about a year ago, there was very little of this, and I think when they did crop up, they were all the more funny. But I worry that r/formula1 is beginning to turn into the rest of Reddit. I was attracted to Reddit because of good grammar, intelligent comments, insightful posts, and quirky in-jokes. Over the past year that has mostly disappeared, and I have stuck mostly to r/formula1. I just don't want to see one of the few parts of Reddit I can still intelligently enjoy devolving into a Reddit memefest resembling a cross-over between Youtube comments and FunnyJunk.

If you like that, you should check out the RBR Haynes manual.

Hayne's manual on Red Bull's first championship winning car, the RB6

For people looking for the technical book about the ins and outs of an F1 car (RB6).

Good book and the one I came in here to recommend.

Red Bull put out a shop manual for the RB6(?) A few years back. It's got a lot of really interesting stuff in it.
