PAUL MONAGHAN SET TO JOIN CADILLAC, BUT HASN’T RESIGNED FROM RED BULL YET

Red Bull's Head of Car Engineering, Paul Monaghan, is set to join the Cadillac Formula 1 team, a significant acquisition for the incoming American outfit. Monaghan's move is effectively finalized, though he has not yet formally resigned from his long-held Red Bull role and is still working trackside this weekend. He's a veteran of the sport, joining Red Bull in 2005 and playing a crucial, if less visible, role in their championship dominance.

This transfer signifies another high-profile departure from Milton Keynes, following Christian Horner and Adrian Newey's exits, sparking further concerns over Red Bull's internal stability and Max Verstappen's future. For Cadillac, securing a top technical mind like Monaghan, who began his F1 career with McLaren working alongside Ayrton Senna, signals their serious intent to build a competitive American team from the ground up. This hire further validates Cadillac's long-term vision for the grid.
