Morgan, a British technician, has been with the racing team for over six years, having previously worked at Williams as a track aerodynamicist

Marko’s future was subsequently thrust into doubt, with Verstappen, loyal to the man who had helped him rise through the ranks at Red Bull, claiming that should Marko leave he would also depart the Milton Keynes-based side.
The motorsport advisor has since insisted that he won’t be leaving the Formula One team ahead of the Saudi Grand Prix but in a fresh turn of events revealed he had previously thoughgt about leaving the team

We owe that to him,’ the Austrian said to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf on Sunday
