(Reuters) – AlphaTauri Formula One principal Franz Tost will step down at the end of the season with Laurent Mekies joining from Ferrari as his replacement, the Red Bull-owned team announced on Wednesday.
Former senior FIA executive Peter Bayer will also join the Italy-based team as chief executive officer later in the year. AlphaTauri said Mekies’s start date was still to be confirmed.
