Red Bull Chief Engineer of Performance Pierre Wache has been appointed to the newly created role of Technical Director with the energy drinks outfit, making him second in charge to Chief Technical Officer Adrian Newey.
The appointment of Wache will allow Newey to focus on both the Formula 1 project and Aston Martin/ Red Bull related road car endeavours.
Wache joined Red Bull in 2o13 after a spell with Sauber and his promotion does not impact on the existing positions of Chief Engineering Officer Rob Marshall, Head of Aerodynamics Dan Fallows and Chief Engineer for Car Engineering Paul Monaghan.
The internal move is expected to streamline Red Bull's chain of command on the design front. The team has tended to mould itself around Newey's commitment. This move will lessen the impact his occasional absences will have on the team.
