VERSTAPPEN TO HAVE NEW RACE ENGINEER FOR THE 2021 SEASON Published February 14, 2021
THE START OF THE 2021 FORMULA ONE SEASON IS ONLY A MONTH AWAY. Red Bull Racing's star driver Max Verstappen welcomes a significant change to his team: a new race engineer. This shift marks an important development in Verstappen's pursuit of championship glory.
The Role of a Race Engineer
A race engineer plays a crucial role in a driver's performance throughout the season. They are responsible for communicating key information during races, strategizing pit stops, and optimizing car performance based on real-time data. The relationship between the driver and the race engineer can significantly impact the driver's success on the track.
Verstappen's New Partnership
With Gianpiero Lambiase stepping down from his position as Verstappen's race engineer at the end of the 2020 season, the driver was in need of a new one to fill that position. Red Bull Racing posted to their official Instagram recently, announcing that Luciano Aveni will be taking on the role, a suggestion from Lambiase. Aveni had interned at Red Bull back in 2015, so he already had some prior experience working alongside the team. Now at the age of twenty-five and with a Bachelor's in Engineering, a fresh new face on the team may be a good thing. Aveni's experience and technical expertise are expected to complement Verstappen's aggressive and skilled driving style.
The Impact on the 2021 Season
With the season just about to start, there's high hopes that this partnership will last for the years to come. Though, no one is entirely certain how Verstappen and Aveni will fare during this partnership as driver and race engineer. Only time will tell, and hopefully it will lead to a positive outcome.
