Red Bull’s ‘unrest behind the scenes’

The role of their chief technical officer Adrian Newey has been in question, according to recent reports. However, the Red Bull team remains intact and currently lead both championships.

Whilst Red Bull continue to dominate the 2024 season, there are fears that internal disagreements may not be over.

According to PlanetF1, former F1 driver Robert Doornbos has claimed a key figure within Red Bull is ‘not happy’ with Christian Horner.

“Despite all the success at Red Bull, there is still a lot of unrest behind the scenes,” he said.

“We get the tip of the iceberg through the media, but what is happening there now… Marko is not happy with Horner and Horner is not happy with Marko either. There are some things going on there.”
