Briton considered mastermind behind team’s dominanceFerrari reported to have had talks with Newey
Adrian Newey, one of the most celebrated designers in Formula One history, will leave Red Bull next year. The team confirmed that the 65-year-old Briton, considered to be the mastermind behind their unprecedented dominance of the sport, is set to end his two-decade stay in the “first quarter of 2025”.
Ferrari – soon to be joined by Lewis Hamilton – are in pole position to sign him and Newey’s departure places further pressure on the Red Bull team principal, Christian Horner. Horner was cleared in February of alleged misconduct towards a female employee, who has lodged an appeal against the outcome.
