Adrian Newey is the main person responsible for the dominance of the RB19 of Max Verstappen and Checo Pérez in the 2023 Formula 1 season and He has worked for almost two decades with the Red Bull team. Within the Great Circus, Newey is a respected and coveted man, which is why the teams dream of signing him as if he were a pilot.
Newey is about to end his contract with Red Bulla team with which he has been linked since 2005, for which Adrian Newey has been linked to other teams, according to rumors, including Aston Martin, which has already brought several Red Bull engineers into its ranks.
Adrian Newey leaving Red Bull?
Rumors have grown since at the Australian Grand Prix he was not present on the pitwall. The departure of Newey would represent a hard blow for Red Bull for the future, however, Christian Horner, director of the team, assured that Newey will not go anywhere, since he is committed to the team.
“There will always be rumors in this paddock, it is Formula 1. He is a very important and valuable part of our team. He’s involved in other things now. Adrian is a man with a great commitment to Red Bull. He has a personal and non-transferable agreement with the team for the next few years”Horner told Sky Sports.
Horner guarantees the continuity of Adrian Newey
Newey was the guide so that Red Bull did not suffer from the rebound effect in the 2022 season, something that gave Mercedes a lot of problems, but he also designed the first Red Bull commercial car, which christened as RB17, and will be launched in 2025. Will this be a clue to think that Newey will stay at Red Bull until that year?
“His heart is still in Formula 1, and his commitment to the team too… We are not talking about the contracts or their duration, but It will stay there for many years. He is very happy and he will want to continue with the work that he has been doing with us for many years ”he said, for which a renewal could be given very soon.
Newey has spent decades working directly in Formula 1, in which he has gone through moments of glory, such as the Red Bull titles, but he has also experienced the opposite side, and the case of Ayrton Senna’s death, who died in a Williams car, designed by Adrian Newey.
