He had been principal aerodynamicist from February 2018 until October 2022 when he moved into his current role.
The change in aero personnel comes ahead of the earlier-than-expected arrival of two key staff from Ferrari – including the Scuderia’s former chief designer Simone Resta – who had been signed but may have been unavailable until next year.
Now if only there was a high profile, relatively successful aero guy in the industry either coming out of his contract, or who decided to cut his contract early, say, for reasons that his boss made inappropriate advances to their mutual assistant? Wouldn’t that be just swell, if you’re a Mercedes fan?
What a fuck you to the aero guy’s boss that will be, joining Merc.
It’ll be a greater fuck you to the 7 time world champion who left to Ferrari due to an underperforming car and contract disagreements.
