El CEO de McLaren, Zak Brown, advierte sobre los riesgos de equidad de los equipos B en la F1

El CEO de McLaren Racing, Zak Brown, ha criticado el modelo de 'equipo A y equipo B' de la Fórmula 1, afirmando que pone en riesgo la integridad del deporte. Señaló los recientes movimientos de personal entre Red Bull y su equipo hermano, Racing Bulls, como ejemplos de posibles ventajas injustas. Brown pidió una mayor independencia entre los 11 equipos para mantener la confianza de los aficionados.

Zak Brown expresó sus preocupaciones poco después de que Red Bull anunciara la contratación del director técnico adjunto de Racing Bulls, Andrea Landi, como su jefe de rendimiento. Landi comenzará en la base de Red Bull en Milton Keynes el 1 de julio. Por el contrario, el intento de McLaren de fichar al jefe de carreras de Red Bull, Gianpiero Lambiase, enfrenta un retraso posiblemente hasta 2028 debido a las reglas de licencia administrativa (gardening leave). Brown enfatizó que tales transiciones rápidas entre equipos estrechamente vinculados crean ventajas financieras y deportivas injustas, a menudo sin compensación bajo el límite de costos. Citó casos como el de Ferrari y Haas intercambiando personal rápidamente, señalando que la propiedad intelectual reside 'en la cabeza'.
