Red Bull announced this month that Chief Technical Officer Adrian Newey will step down from his role in 2025 after nearly two decades with the team, citing a desire for new challenges.

Despite concerns, Marko remains confident in Red Bull’s ability to maintain competitiveness post-Newey and is focusing on the team’s performance in the World Championship.
