Mekis: Helmut Marko is still helping us now.
Red Bull Racing team principal Laurent Mekies stated that many in the team continue to communicate with the retired Helmut Marko and benefit from his advice…
Laurent Mekies: “I’m sure many are in touch with him. Maybe not first thing in the morning, but a little later, Helmut remains very open and accessible to us. He’s not at the track now, but we are using his advice.
It’s impossible to turn the page on Helmut’s history, as for two decades he successfully created a program for training young drivers. Today we live off his legacy. And, as I said, he is always ready to help if we need it.”
