Red Bull-Tom McCullough 2027 move reported

BBC Sport and Autosport report Red Bull is moving for Tom McCullough as head of racing from 2027, with Gianpiero Lambiase linked to McLaren.

BBC Sport and Autosport reported that Red Bull is moving to bring in former Aston Martin performance director Tom McCullough as head of racing from 2027. BBC Sport said the team had targeted McCullough for the role, while Autosport reported that he is lined up to replace Gianpiero Lambiase.

Because the supplied brief marks the story as unconfirmed, the move remains a reported development here rather than an established team announcement. Autosport also reported that Lambiase is set to join McLaren in 2028 as chief racing officer, reporting to team principal Andrea Stella.

The reported change would concern one of Formula 1's most successful teams. Red Bull entered the championship in 2005 and, through 2026, has won 130 Grands Prix and six constructors' titles. McCullough's current team, Aston Martin, has competed across eight active seasons between 1959 and 2026 and has yet to record a race win or a constructors' title.
