As turmoil continues to brew inside the Red Bull camp, new reports have emerged signalling a move from Adrian Newey's right hand man, Pierre Wache, to rival team Ferrari.

After two seasons of utter domination and three straight Drivers' Championship victories, Red Bull Racing now faces an uncertain future. The reigning champions are going through a tumultuous period with the allegations of inappropriate behaviour surrounding team principal Christian Horner.

While the Brit's future with the team remains uncertain, rumors have now started to emerge that Horner's potential departure could trigger a cascading effect. Previous reports suggested that Horner's future with the team could directly influence the future of Red Bull's Chief Technical Officer, Adrian Newey. The 65-year-old, one of the greatest engineers F1 has ever seen, would reportedly move to rival team Ferrari, should Horner depart.

Now, reports from BBC have given rise to speculations surrounding Pierre Wache, Red Bull's Technical Director and effectively Adrian Newey's number two.

While no concrete evidence has been presented, rumors persist that Wache is already on his way to Italy to join the Scuderia. This potential exodus of key personnel threatens to disrupt Red Bull's engineering hierarchy and further destabilize the team's competitive edge on the track.
