Red Bull to go for Klien?

(GMM) Red Bull is in 'no hurry' to name a 2005 F1 teammate for David Coulthard. That's the insistence of Helmut Marko, advisor to energy drink mogul Dietrich Mateschitz and an Austrian-born former grand prix driver. ''We need more time to weigh up all the options,'' he told the Austrian media after managing director David Pitchforth suggested that 2004 (Jaguar) driver Christian Klien should stay at the team in 2005 given that he is over-qualified for the Friday role and should not be abandoned. Marko, who lost the sight in one eye after a stone smashed his visor in 1972, told German website F1welt.de that Pitchforth 'must remember that he is an employee, not a team owner,' perhaps punching in the corner for F3000 champion and similarly Red Bull-backed Tonio Liuzzi. 61-year-old Helmut said: ''All decisions will be made in Salzburg.''
