Mercedes boss Ross Brawn has said that the Red Bull’s dominance in the sport will be threatened in the long run due to the departure of aerodynamics chief Peter Prodromou.
Prodromou will be joining McLaren in 2015 but Red Bull will be looking to keep hold of him till then.
“I don’t know Peter to be honest, but he has a reputation of being a strong engineer and he has been involved in some very successful projects. So there will be a change. I don’t think any team can lose someone of that caliber without it having an impact,” said Brawn.

Brawn also pointed out that staff arrivals are a major part in success of a team and stated the move of Adrian Newey from McLaren to Red Bull as an example.
“Red Bull are where they are because they took Adrian out of McLaren. It is part of the process of F1 and it goes around and around. If Red Bull has a certain philosophy or approach that is fairly unique, then McLaren will become familiar with that approach. That is the nature of F1. It is fairly incestuous and the engineers move around. James Allison has gone from Lotus, where he designed a very good car, to Ferrari, and I am sure next year their car will be better. That is the nature of the business,” he added.
