McLaren hired a key name from Red Bull two years ago, and since then, it has not looked back!
Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko praised the impact Rob Marshall has had on McLaren since he joined the team, after spending 17 successful years at Red Bull contributing to championships with Vettel and Verstappen. Marshall, now McLaren’s chief designer, has played a key role in the team’s impressive season with 11 wins out of 14 grands prix so far. Red Bull, on the other hand, has been struggling for pace this campaign. Marko admires Marshall’s engineering skills and acknowledges his influence on McLaren’s success. The title fight this year is between Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris, with both holding a significant lead over the competition.
