At the end of two decades at Red Bull, possibly the most divisive character in modern F1 in Helmut Marko, can be credited with a huge role in the team’s success.
In his two-decade tenure at Red Bull, Helmut Marko played a significant role in the team’s success, particularly through overseeing the young driver program and developing talents like Max Verstappen and Sebastian Vettel.
Under Marko’s leadership, Red Bull claimed numerous Drivers’ titles, Constructors’ Championships, and over 100 race victories, solidifying their position as a powerhouse in Formula 1.
Despite his knack for talent-spotting, Marko’s departure signals a new era for Red Bull as they transition to a new leadership structure led by Laurent Mekies.
The departure of Marko, along with other key figures like Christian Horner, marks the end of an era for Red Bull and sets the stage for a fresh start in the upcoming F1 seasons.
While his divisive nature and controversies may leave a void, Red Bull looks ahead to the future with optimism and new talent like Isack Hadjar and Arvid Lindblad emerging from the junior program.
