Things haven't changed.
They only won one race in 2008 in Monza where Sebastian Vettel drove brilliantly in the rain in his first full F1 season. Scored pole position too.

I thought i've heard years ago that there's no point for Red Bull to keep funding two teams in F1. Just current RBR gives enough media exposure and excellent result with a very competitive team since 2009.
