Ferrari Linked with Red Bull Strategist Hannah Schmitz

Rumours suggest Scuderia Ferrari could be interested in Hannah Schmitz, one of the key figures behind Red Bull Racing’s success in recent years.

The speculation comes as Ferrari looks to improve its performance across all areas, including race strategy.

Why Schmitz?

Hannah Schmitz has built a strong reputation in Formula 1.

  • Joined Red Bull in 2009
  • Known for decisive strategy calls during races
  • Played a key role in Red Bull’s dominant run from 2021 to 2024

With Red Bull seeing several seniors leave or set to leave, rumours suggest more changes could follow.

Why This Matters Now

The rumours surrounding Hannah Schmitz come at a time when Red Bull Racing is already undergoing major internal changes.

One of the biggest moments was the dismissal of Christian Horner in 2025 after nearly 20 years in charge.

Horner led Red Bull through its most successful period, winning multiple championships, but his exit marked the end of that era and triggered a wider reshuffle within the team.

Ferrari’s Situation

Ferrari’s team principal, Frederic Vasseur, has repeatedly said the team needs to improve in every department.

That has led to speculation that Ferrari could look outside to strengthen its strategy team.

Background: Key Departures

Red Bull has already lost several important figures.

  • Rob Marshall left and joined McLaren
  • Adrian Newey moved to Aston Martin

Both played major roles in the team’s success over the years.

Conclusion

For now, this remains speculation.

Hannah Schmitz remains one of the most respected strategists in Formula 1, which naturally links her to other teams.

But based on more reliable sources, there is no clear indication that Ferrari is making a move at the moment.
