Adrian Newey, one of Formula 1’s most successful car designers, is preparing to leave Red Bull at the start of 2025. Newey, who has been with Red Bull for years, has designed cars that have won 25 World Championships. Before he leaves, he will focus on completing work on the RB17 hypercar.
Rumors suggest that Newey has signed a $100 million deal with Aston Martin. However, his manager, Eddie Jordan, has stated that any official announcement about Newey’s future plans must wait due to an agreement with Red Bull. This agreement controls when and how any news about Newey’s next steps can be released.
Jordan, who claims to have a “sixth sense” about future events, has hinted that Newey is enjoying his time away from the F1 spotlight. Newey is spending his summer with his wife, enjoying the freedom and relaxation that comes with it.
When asked about Newey’s future, Jordan remained tight-lipped, respecting the agreement with Red Bull. He emphasized that the timing of any announcement will be up to Newey.
Adrian Newey has already made a significant impact on F1 with his work at Williams, McLaren, and Red Bull. As Max Verstappen and Red Bull lead the 2024 Championships, Newey’s legacy in the sport could continue to grow. However, fans will have to wait a little longer to hear about his next move.
