McCullough to take racing helm at Red Bull from 2027

Tom McCullough will transition to Red Bull Racing in 2027 to assume the newly created role of head of racing, the Milton Keynes-based team announced on Tuesday. The move marks a significant leadership shift for the reigning constructors' champions as they continue to strengthen their management structure ahead of the coming campaign.

McCullough's appointment comes at a pivotal moment for Red Bull, which has faced intensifying competition in recent Formula One seasons. His experience at Aston Martin, a team undergoing its own resurgence in the sport, positions him to oversee critical operational and strategic elements of Red Bull's racing division.

The executive's role as head of racing will encompass broad responsibility for the team's competitive operations and strategic direction on track. Red Bull has not disclosed further details regarding the scope of McCullough's responsibilities or reporting structure within the organization.

McCullough joins a number of high-profile personnel movements within Formula One as teams prepare for the 2027 season, which will introduce new engine regulations and technical specifications. His arrival at Red Bull underscores the team's commitment to maintaining its competitive edge in the sport's rapidly evolving landscape.
