McLaren CEO Zak Brown believes Red Bull’s recent high-profile F1 departures has “destabilised” the ꧋team, suggesting they’re missing the influence of Adrian Newey froꦐm a technical perspective.

McLaren sit just eight points behind Red Bull in the F1 constructors’ championship following✨ the Italian Grand Prix.

Red Bull suffered their worst result in pure performance terms since Singapore last year, where they finished fifth with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen.

Red Bu𝔍ll have lost a number of key personnel, with Rob Marshall joining McLaren ꦐlast year.

Newey’s departure was announced ahead of the Miami Grand 🏅Prix earlier in the year, while Jonathan Wheatley wil♊l leave the team at the end of 2024 to become team principal at Audi.

Brown hasn’t been afra🐠id to poke fun in the past, hinting that there have been a lot of “🗹CVs floating around” with key Red Bull staff looking to leave.

Speaking after the race at Monza to Sky Spor𝐆ts, Brown gave his view on Red Bul♊l.

“Ultimately I don’t know what’s going on in there,” he said. “Adrian Newey, I bet it 🙈would be nice to have him around the conference room table right now looking at how to improve the car and Jonathan Wheatley is still there but he’s mo♈ving on. Rob Marshall has joined us.

“𒊎You’ve got three of the most senior people that 🐻were in Red Bull - three huge contributors. It can’t not be a loss.

“We all have bad pit stops but it does seem to be that thing🦋s are a bit more destabilised than they have been recently.”

Brown🐎 also once again categorically💦 ruled out a move for Newey.

“He 🔥always returns my calls,” Brown added♓. “We’re good friends but as I said I am very happy with the race team that I have.” 

Newey is expected to join Aston Martin, with S༒ky's David Croft suggesting on Saturday that his future could be annou🀅nced next week.
