I see Red Bull is still fully active in Russia; no withdrawal of activity. Actually recruiting still it seems...

https://jobs.redbull.com/ca-en/locations/red-bull-russia?lang=en

Red Bull Bombcivillianspage ?

Does Russian branding now says "Red Bull gives you wings to go commit war crimes" ?

Wonder how all the sponsored high profile riders continue to sleep ar night with branding like that over their kit.

Some "fun" could be had there....

Applicants name: V.Putin
Experience: Genocide, Tyranny, Extortion, Blackmail.....

Etc

(Edit: "no jobs found" for any of the departments listed so we may be getting outraged too soon 😉. Put your pitchforks back in the cupboard...)

Did you actually click any of the jobs types?! There are no jobs listed. Poor that they haven't removed the Russia part of the site, but I imagine it's an oversight (that they should quickly resolve) rather than the daily mail headline of this thread "actively recruiting" 😂

Perhaps we could openly boycott RED BULL until they provide evidence that they’ve pulled out of Russia? Lots of cycling activities this weekend, delete the app until we get confirmation?

The F1 community really needs to be vocal on social media about this - if you're an F1 fan then tweet Red Bull and Red Bull F1.

The stuff smells like paint thinners, surely that's the bigger crime

Yep, because as they've shown by refusing to host races in places like Bahrain, Abu Dhabi, Azerbaijan, Saudi and Hungary the F1 community firmly has its sights on supporting human rights, the rule of international law and not bombing your near neighbours into catastrophic famines or social and political collapse.

Absolutely F1 needs to take a stand on Russia invading Ukraine and bombing White people.

Red Bull still operating in Russia as of the 8th April.

Has to be said they are not alone in that.

Given that we are it’s not a surprise.

Looks like they've updated the website so the power of shaming has worked!
