Long-time Red Bull mechanic Calum Nicholas has confirmed he has taken on a new position within the team. Nicholas, who has worked in the Red Bull garage for 10 years, is now a Red Bull ambassador and will no longer carry out mechanic duties at the squad. Nicholas has amassed a small following in the last handful of years and currently has almost 350,000 followers on Instagram. The Briton is also publishing his own book, detailing life as a mechanic in the F1 paddock. Nicholas took to social media ahead of the new F1 season to announce his role change. “To all of those who’ve been a part of this amazing journey, thank you,” he said. “For the last decade of my life l've been very fortunate to work with an incredible group of people, in a team like no other. “So, today, l'm very pleased to announce that I'll be taking on an exciting new role, as a Red Bull Racing ambassador!”

The time has come to hang up my race suit… 15 years of racing as a mechanic, 13 Formula One seasons, 233 Grands Prix, 4 World Drivers' Championships, 2 World Constructors' Championships & 7 consecutive pitstop awards... it's a career that I'm incredibly proud to look back… — Calum Nicholas (@F1mech) February 25, 2025
