The Redbull team does market their team and product quite aggressively and they take any opportunity they can to try and get publicity. The display cars are either models or the real thing. If it’s not a replica, than yes, it has probably been driven by one of their drivers.

By the way redbull is a very decent, I would say strong team, they are relatively new and they have achieved good results, a handful of podiums and some strong results lately, even outperforming Renault which is supposed to be their benchmark since they are using the same engine. They have 2 genuinely good drivers too.

I have seen the Red Bull car in the flesh and it is kinda loud!

Yes it is a Red Bull original and yes formula cars are loud. At top speed they are even louder. When a F1 car is gearing down from 280km/hr to 60km/hr to make a hairpin curve it sounds like automatic gunfire. The brake discs will glow red. It’s insane speed driven to the limit.
