McLaren have announced the signing of Red Bull’s Head of Strategy Will Courtenay as their new Sporting Director.
The exodus continues. Behind the smiles and jokes in the press conferences, the atmosphere must be horrendously bad for top, middle, and bottom people be heading for the exits as if the ship is sinking.
Low-key hoping next year is humbling for Horner and Marko. A pity for everyone else that works there, but those two really needs a swift kick in the arse.
Aren’t Horner and Marko on opposite sides in this? Or are those rumours outdated?
No one can trust Red Bull, obviously, but yes, that is the rumour.
But this is one of those situations where I hope both sides lose (the team’s other personnel is the sad collateral damage, which sucks). So if RBR can be in the low midfield next season and then both Horner and Marko get the sack, that would be splendid.
Maybe Ricciardo should hit up RBR’s open positions page? He’d probably make a good cybersecurity analyst.
Interesting, so he wanted to get away from strategy or how does such a switch happen? Is that a “natural” way of rising through the career ladder?
