(Mercedes AMG PETRONAS)
Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton has lost his
performance engineer Jock Clear. The 51 year old Englishman who had been with
the Mercedes since it entered Formula One as BAR in 1999, resigned from the
team following the season finale Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
As reported by Paddock Eye on Wednesday, Clear will join Scuderia Ferrari in 2015, following a period
of gardening leave from the Mercedes AMG PETRONAS F1 Team.
It is expected that the highly rated engineer will replace
Pat Fry at the Maranello based outfit following the announcement earlier this
week that Fry had left Ferrari. It is expected that Clear will become head of Ferrari’s
Trackside Engineering operation, the position former held by Fry.
Clear will join fellow Englishman, James Allison who remains
at Ferrari as technical Director.
