No change on pitwall - Purnell
16 November 2004The former Jaguar management will probably sit on the 'Red Bull' pitwall next season, continuing team principal Tony Purnell said on Monday. Austrian energy drink magnate Dietrich Mateschitz has pledged $400 million to the Milton Keynes-based Formula One team over the next three years, but is unlikely to ask for a ceremonious spot in the limelight.
"He does not crave publicity," Purnell told a news conference. "Red Bull ... will employ professionals to run the team."
Mateschitz, whose company's slogan is 'Red Bull Gives You Wings,' called the Jaguar purchase the 'provisional summit' of a decade-long flirt with Formula One.
