Racing director of the Ferrari F1 team, Laurent Mekies, according to some rumors, is supposed to leave Maranello and move to Faenza, to Red Bull's Alpha Tauri team.

After numerous personnel changes in the Ferrari team, at least one more should soon follow, at least if the reporting of the Italian Gazzetta dello Sport is to be believed, where they claim that the Frenchman will return to the team with which he started his career in Formula One. Mekies was said to be looking for a new employer immediately after Binotto's departure, although the latter was replaced by his friend Fred Vasseur, and Ferrari's decision that they did not consider him a candidate for the new team leader had a lot of weight in the decision.

Gazzetta speculates that the Frenchman could move to Alpha Taura before the end of this season, and at the latest in the next one. Mekies would thus land alongside Franz Tost, the long-serving team boss from Faenza, who plans to retire from F1 within the next three years, and would be in a prime position to take over the team.
