In his new role, Blais expressed gratitude for the trust shown in him by the team stakeholders and looks forward to focusing more on leadership skills than pure engineering. He emphasized the importance of a strong and experienced leadership group within the team for success. Blais’ promotion comes amidst several changes at the Monaco-based team, including a new driver lineup for the upcoming season with Jake Hughes and Stoffel Vandoorne joining.
