Team Red Bull officials announced Monday that Vice President and General Manager Marty Gaunt is no longer with the Toyota team, citing a difference in team philosophy between Gaunt and other management.

Gaunt declined to specify what philosophical differences led to his split with Red Bull, saying only that he believes a team needs good chemistry to survive. Through a spokesperson, Red Bull declined to comment beyond its tersely-worded statement.

“My philosophy is about chemistry, it’s about putting the right people in the right places. That’s my philosophy,” Gaunt said. “What their philosophy is, by putting out a statement like that, I would say you’d have to call there and ask them. I can’t answer on their behalf.”

Now Gaunt, who says he will look for other opportunities within the sport, has to watch the team he created go on without him. David Caraviello, NASCAR.COM
