McLaren reshuffles F1 technical team as Sanchez leaves after three months
David Sanchez joined McLaren from Ferrari in January to enhance the engineering team, but it was evident that his role as technical director was not as expected. Andrea Stella, the team principal, will temporarily take over Sanchez’s responsibilities while they search for a replacement. Despite the mutual decision for Sanchez to leave the team, Stella expressed gratitude for his contributions. Rob Marshall has stepped in as chief designer, Neil Houldley as technical director of engineering, and Peter Prodromou continues as technical director of aerodynamics. Sanchez started his F1 journey with Renault, then moved to McLaren in 2007, and later to Ferrari before joining McLaren in 2024.
