Red Bull chief mechanic Jon Caller has announced he is leaving Formula 1 after ten years and will continue his career in endurance racing with Ford.

Caller has worked on both sides of Red Bull’s garage and has been chief mechanic since this season. In his farewell message, he cited four drivers’ titles and two constructors’ titles. He said the people who made his time in F1 enjoyable were what he would miss most; he would also miss the cars, travel and glamour.

Ford is set to return to the World Endurance Championship (WEC) in 2027 with a hypercar; the American marque has also been active in GT3 this season.
