The McLaren CEO has expressed his concern with AlphaTauri and Red Bull’s links as they exploit more areas in the regulations.
McLaren CEO Zak Brown has voiced concerns over the alliance between AlphaTauri and Red Bull, stating that it goes against the spirit of the regulations in Formula 1. Red Bull’s recent announcement of strengthening their partnership with AlphaTauri has brought into question the fairness of competition. This is not the first time AlphaTauri’s links to Red Bull have been scrutinized, as in 2008 and 2009, when operating as Toro Rosso, they faced similar concerns. Brown believes that shared resources, access to data, and strategic influence can compromise the independence and level playing field of the sport. He suggests that Formula 1 should prioritize fairness and competition, and regulations should prevent the spread of influence through ownership and alliances within teams.
