The Formula 1 mastermind has a new team

The 65-year-old, who has played a key role in all of Red Bull's successes and titles to date, has been the focus of much speculation for months, with a move to Ferrari in particular being repeatedly expected. Newey will join Aston Martin as a shareholder and managing technical partner. He will start on March 1, 2025. "This is the most exciting news in the history of Aston Martin," said team co-owner Lawrence Stroll at a press conference on Tuesday. The racing team of Canadian billionaire Stroll has pulled off a coup. Newey has been working as an engineer in Formula 1980 since the 1s, he has worked for Williams, McLaren and Red Bull since 2006. Cars he has designed have won 13 drivers' titles and the constructors' championship twelve times, six of which have been Red Bull cars. His departure from the British-Austrian racing team has been a given for some time. He is looking for a new challenge, Newey said in May. Now he is moving from Milton Keynes, where Red Bull Racing has its headquarters, just a few kilometers away to Aston Martin's ultra-modern headquarters at the Grand Prix race track in Silverstone. The goal is the World Cup title "They have all the key parts in the infrastructure that are needed to make Aston Martin a team that can win the world championship," said Newey in a statement. He wants to help "achieve this goal." With Newey's future commitment, Aston Martin should also become even more attractive in the driver market. Two-time world champion Fernando Alonso (43) and Stroll's son Lance (25) currently drive for the team.
