One of Mercedes' big name technical staff is departing the Brackley-based team...
Following a mid-season shuffle of their senior technical staff, one of their key figureheads has opted to leave Mercedes.
Following the team’s disappointing start to 2023, Elliott led a revolution within the technical department that resulted in him swapping job roles with James Allison – reversing the job switch the pair had done in 2021.Having joined the Brackley-based team in 2012, Elliott rose through a series of positions that saw him lead the aerodynamic department and become Technology Director before replacing Allison as technical director in mid-2021.
When its successor, the W14, proved little better at the start of the year, Elliott’s own internal review resulted in a swap back with Allison – the man who oversaw the successful designs of the previous era returning to the helm while Elliott took on the broader role as Mercedes’ chief technical officer.
