Red Bull seething at ‘childish’ McLaren as ‘animosity’ rages
Over the Miami Grand Prix weekend, Zak Brown visited the Red Bull Racing pit box and had an exchange with Laurent Mekies about Gianpiero Lambiase’s departure from McLaren. F1 journalist Erik van Haren claims tensions are rising between Red Bull and McLaren due to on-track clashes and off-track conflicts. Brown has expressed disapproval of Red Bull’s partnership with Racing Bulls and the transfer of high-profile names to McLaren. Tensions between Brown and Mekies escalated over Lambiase potentially becoming McLaren’s team boss, leading to discussions and a meeting between the two team bosses to address the issue. Despite some resolution, underlying friction and animosity persist between Red Bull and McLaren as demonstrated by McLaren’s press release mentioning former Red Bull personnel.
