## Resource

In the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast, we discuss the news that Max Verstappen’s long-time race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase will join McLaren as chief racing officer in a move currently scheduled for 2028. What does this latest big-name loss mean for Red Bull, and what does it tell us about Verstappen’s future? We answer both of those questions, while also explaining Lambiase's new role with McLaren, why he’s been recruited and what it could mean for the long-term leadership of the team.  Get bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening, sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today .
