MILTON KEYNES (ENGLAND), OCT 14 (AP): Red Bull team principal Laurent Mekies has signed a long-term contract extension with the Formula 1 team, through 2031.
The extension was announced Wednesday by Red Bull shareholder Mark Mateschitz, during a team debrief in Milton Keynes following Max Verstappen’s back-to-back victories in Malaysia and Singapore.
“I am incredibly proud to continue this journey with Oracle Red Bull Racing,” Mekies said in a statement. “What makes this team special is the way everyone comes together in pursuit of the same goal, and I feel privileged to work alongside such a talented and committed group every day.
“We have a strong platform for the years ahead, and we genuinely believe this is only the beginning.”
Mekies has been in charge for 15 months after replacing longtime boss Christian Horner, who was abruptly fired in July last year.
