Zak Brown plans spying tour of Red Bull factory
Zak Brown will soon embark on a Red Bull Spy Mission |
F1 teams will go to all sorts of lengths to try and understand what their rivals are doing. They hire Photographers will wander up and down the pit lane trying to snap images, and there are even stories of teams sending people to pubs near rival F1 factories at lunchtime in the hope of overhearing some engineers chatting about team secrets.
McLaren boss Zak Brown has opted for a rather more direct approach to gathering intel. During a charity auction for The Halow Project, Red Bull Technical boss Adrian Newey had offered a tour of the Red Bull Racing facilities. The winning bidder? Zak Brown made sure he was.
