RacingNews365 technical expert Paolo Filisetti provides an insight into Ferrari’s push for improvements off-track.
Red Bull’s ongoing turmoil has been recently diffused with Helmut Marko confirming he will not be suspended after a meeting with Red Bull GmbH managing director Oliver Mintzlaff. Despite this, the team faced internal instability, evident from the atmosphere at their Milton Keynes base. Rivals, like Ferrari, have capitalized on this uncertainty by intensifying contacts with key Red Bull personnel, including technical director Pierre Waché and head of aerodynamics Enrico Balbo. Ferrari’s strategic poaching attempts also extend to figures like Red Bull’s David Morgan, responsible for aerodynamic development, and Alessandro Germani, an expert in CFD simulations. The involvement of Ferrari chairman John Elkann in discussions with Red Bull’s management further highlights the intense competition between the two teams in Formula 1.
