Formula 1's legendary designer Adrian Newey has opened up on his shock Red Bull exit last year, revealing that he wouldn't be honest to himself if he continued

Adrian Newey believes a lack of experience set Red Bull back during the 2024 season, as the team struggled to keep up with rivals McLaren and Ferrari.

Legendary Formula 1 car designer Adrian Newey will start his new role with Aston Martin in March having walked away from Red Bull last year in a decision which rocked the sport

Listening to Red Bull Racing's leadership during the second part of last season, it was a coincidence that Adrian Newey' s farewell almost coincided with the start of the decline in sporting performance.

Adrian Newey has provided an update on his Red Bull exit after difficulties at the team have emerged for Christian Horner. The Formula 1 design legend announced his departure from Red Bull last year, and signed with Aston Martin instead for the 2025 season.

Adrian Newey is no doubt counting down the days before he gets back to work. After a mandatory gardening leave following his years at Red Bull Racing, he will start at Aston Martin on the first working day in March.

The legendary engineer, who left Red Bull last year amid the team's internal struggles, says he noticed fundamental handling problems that made the car increasingly difficult to drive. "Obviously part of it was McLaren in particular and Ferrari as well developing their cars and doing a very good job of it," Newey told Auto Motor und Sport.
