Speaking in an interview with F1 Insider, Marko said:

The Silverstone outfit has poached the Red Bull F1 team’s key aerodynamic chief Dan Fallows, whom the Milton Keynes team was keen on retaining. Red Bull, however, had dragged their former engineer to court due to a conflict over his gardening leave.

On being asked if Aston Martin had poached the wrong staff, Marko simply said:

Seeing the Silverstone team struggle at the bottom of the constructors’ standings, Marko believes that they need to be “cohesive” in terms of team dynamics and learn to function as a team. The Austrian advised the Silverstone-based squad that poaching the correct personnel isn’t key to running the team.

Red Bull advisor believes Sebastian Vettel will lose motivation at Aston Martin

Empathizing with their former driver, Helmut Marko revealed that Sebastian Vettel will find it difficult to stay motivated in the Silverstone team with their performance struggles. The Austrian believes the German should write off the current season and focus on the next year, by which time his team would have sorted their performance woes.

Understanding the German champion’s condition on the Silverstone team, Marko said:

Billionaire Lawrence Stroll’s team has also been criticized by 1997 F1 champion Jacques Villeneuve and former F1 driver Ralf Schumacher for the way the team is being managed. In a recent interview, however, their technical chief Andrew Green did feel optimistic about the team’s package and revealed it had potential, which could be good news for its fans.
