Italian media is certain that Ferrari are trying to recruit key behind-the-scenes Red Bull staff
Ferrari are reportedly trying to lure a trio of Red Bull engineers who have worked closely on the all-conquering RB20.But Italian media insist that Ferrari are trying to take advantage of Red Bull’s off-track controversies by luring crucial behind-the-scenes staff.
The three engineers work closely with Red Bull technical director Pierre Wache, who is the right-hand man of Adrian Newey,It is expected that every F1 team will focus their developments on the new 2026 regulations by the start of 2025. Lewis Hamilton will swap Mercedes for Ferrari next year, but the Italian team are looking even further ahead.
The notoriously-long ‘gardening leave’ periods attached to key engineers mean that they could recruit soon to have their new staff in place by 2026.The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix was named “the beginning of the hunt for Adrian Newey” by the Italian newspaper.The genius behind Red Bull’s dominant F1 car is “worn down” by the “climate of tension” at the team.
Ferrari could offer the chance to work on F1 cars, road cars, endurance cars and now even boats, which has become a passion for Newey.
