Red Bull hires Mercedes' junior driver chief Gwen Lagrue for 2027
Red Bull has added Mercedes' junior driver programme leader Gwen Lagrue to its management team starting in 2027, aiming to reinforce its long‑term talent development strategy. Lagrue leaves a decade‑long successful stint at Brackley to work under Red Bull technical director Laurent Mekies.
The move deprives the German team of a key talent scout while accelerating Red Bull's pursuit of emerging drivers.
