Laurent Mekies Takes Helm at Red Bull Racing, vowing to Honor Christian Horner’s Legacy.

In a move that surprised the paddock, Laurent Mekies is now the team principal and CEO of Red Bull Racing, based at the squad’s Milton Keynes headquarters. Early reports were vague about the Frenchman’s brief, fuelling speculation that responsibilities might be split along the lines of McLaren’s dual leadership; a later confirmatory release settled the matter by naming him to both posts.

At forty-eight, Mekies steps up immediately and plans to appear at the Belgian Grand Prix on weekend of July 27. Reflecting on the promotion, he thanked Red Bull for past years, hailed the squads restless competitive drive, and noted the privilege of working with people who live the brands trademark spirit; he is convinced that, together, they can deliver fresh success by building on the formidable foundation Christian Horner crafted during twenty extraordinary seasons.

The change in leadership at Red Bull Racing represents an important chapter for the team, with Pierre Mekies set to guide it forward while respecting the strong groundwork built by Christian Horner. Armed with a clear strategy and years of industry experience, Mekies is positioned to advance Red Bull-s standing in the fiercely competitive Formula 1 arena.
