Adrian Newey abandon Red Bulthere with the Ferrari ready to do anything to sink the final blow. The English designer therefore left the team after almost twenty years Milton Keynes to face a new challenge in the near future F1. The Englishman, tired of what has happened in recent times in the reigning world champion team, has therefore decided to bring forward the end of his relationship with a year and a half in advance of the natural expiry of the contract, i.e. 2025.
Among the various reasonsthe tasks given by Horner to Pierre Wachétechnical director of Red Bull and who will in fact be the father of the new ones Red Bull starting from the season 2026when yet another change will arrive Circus due to the new technical regulation on power unit And aerodynamics. In fact the French originating from Auchel will have full powers, dethroning the British genius, now looking for new challenges considering his extreme curiosity in the world of F1 which “does not allow” him to hang up his beloved pencil, still eager to create enlightened projects in the highest category of motorsports.
The relationship that seemed stainless between Adrian And Christian Horner has been missing for some time now, probably even before the case involving the protagonist broke out team principal British, aka “employee X”, so much so that the contract signed at the end of 2023 it already included specific clauses which have evidently been exercised. Now it only remains to understand what the native of’s next destination will be Stratford-Upon-Avon. An individual who always knows what and how to do to create brilliant and above all successful projects.
There Ferrari undoubtedly seems to be a very attractive option, for various reasons, and the pension feared by some would make no sense, because otherwise why Adrian would he be terminating a year and a half early? Aston Martin it is one of the seems to be a welcome destination for the British, who would finally be ready to land at Maranello after a court that lasted for decades, and which perhaps will finally find its completion this time around.
Newey,
The reasons that would push Newey in Ferrari are multiple: let’s start from assumption number one, that is, working to Maranello for the first time after a career full of successes, and winning with the red one would be the icing on the cake of a fantastic adventure for the English designer, who would finally find himself with one of his protégés, namely Lewis Hamilton. There has always been mutual respect between the two, but they were never able to find that right moment to work together.
The seven-time world champion would be the number one guarantee for Newey same, why land in Ferrari on the threshold of 40 years, it means having only one thing in mind, ending your career with a world title for the Horse Rampantso as to remain forever in the history of F1. And then there would be other projects, such as sailing, rather than Hypercars made in Maranellosomething that other teams, with all their good will, would struggle to guarantee to an engineer who is always constantly looking for challenges, a man who can still get excited when he sees his cars triumph.
