Dan Fallows has been confirmed by Racing Bulls as its new Technical Director following his departure from Aston Martin at the end of the 2025 F1 season.
Dan Fallows has officially been appointed as the new Technical Director of Racing Bulls, marking his transition from Aston Martin at the conclusion of the 2024 Formula 1 season. During his time at Aston Martin as Chief Designer from the beginning of the 2022 season, Fallows played a key role in enhancing the team’s performance. Despite Aston Martin’s success in securing eight podium finishes with Fernando Alonso, Fallows decided to part ways with the team due to their declining performance in the 2024 season after only three years. Returning to his roots, Fallows rejoins the Red Bull family, where he previously worked from 2006 to 2021, gradually ascending the ranks to become chief engineer. As the 2026 regulations draw near, Fallows eagerly assumes his responsibilities overseeing the Racing Bulls VCARB 03 – the team’s F1 car for the upcoming season, expressing his enthusiasm for the team’s vision and technical aspirations. Racing Bulls’ Team Principal, Alan Permane, values Fallows’ 25 years of expertise in the field and anticipates his invaluable contribution to the team’s development and competitive edge. With the support of the Red Bull Powertrains engine, in collaboration with Ford, Racing Bulls aims to build upon its sixth-place finish in the 2025 Constructors’ Championship as they gear up for the challenges ahead.
