McLaren has reshuffled its Formula 1 team's technical structure as technical director David Sanchez has left the Woking squad after just three months.
Sanchez joined McLaren from Ferrari in January among a series of hires to augment the team's engineering staff, but it became apparent that his duties as the technical director in charge of concept and performance were 'not aligned' to those discussed previously. Team principal Andrea Stella will thus assume Sanchez's duties in the interim, as the team searches for a replacement to head up the performance side of the team.
'We greatly and gratefully value the contributions that David has made during his relatively short time with us, and we wish him the best in his future endeavours.'
