- Zak Brown claims ‘an increase in CVs coming our way’
- Max Verstappen on pole for Miami GP sprint race
The McLaren team principal, Zak Brown, has said Adrian Newey’s departure from Red Bull has instigated a spate of applications from Red Bull personnel to join McLaren and that the British designer may be only the first domino to fall in an exodus he has precipitated.
Newey, the most successful car designer of the modern era, announced on Wednesday he was leaving Red Bull after almost two decades with the team. On Thursday Red Bull’s world champion driver Max Verstappen said he would prefer that Newey was not going and that he had played an integral part in Red Bull’s success since the engineer joined the team in 2006, a year after they were formed.
