‘The show goes on’ – Christian Horner insists Red Bull have ‘strength and depth’ to cope with Adrian Newey and Jonathan Wheatley departures

Date:

“It’s something that has been on the cards for a little while, so something that has been part of the planning for some time.”

A restructure has seen several members of the team promoted into new roles for 2025; this has included Steve Knowles becoming the new Head of Sporting Regulations – meaning that he will be the link between the team and governing body the FIA – after previously acting in a senior strategy position, while Richard Wolverson becomes Head of Racing Operations, where he will be responsible for day-to-day track operations.

Max Verstappen’s race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase, meanwhile, will act as Head of Racing while also continuing in his role with Verstappen.

Reflecting on the changes, Horner added: “It’s just a natural progression trackside with those personnel. It’s great because it gives them an opportunity and sometimes an organisation, if it remains stagnant, it fails to progress.

“So, I think this is a fantastic opportunity of progression for many people in the team that have been long standing team members that deserve that opportunity.”
