For Adrian Newey who stands as the most distinguished designer in Formula 1 history there are no regrets regarding his decision to depart from Red Bull. At age 65 after serving the team for almost two decades Adrian Newey transitions to Aston Martin engineering while confident that the career move will offer both inspiration and achievement.
Throughout his 18-year period at Red Bull Newey helped transform the team into a triumphant racing organization. Through his outstanding engineering prowess Newey led Red Bull Racing to capture six constructor titles and eight driver titles which brought the team to its position as top-place champion. The 2023 contract extension did not stop him from resigning from Red Bull just one year afterward.
The thought of stopping Formula 1 car design work was not bearable to Newey who confessed he could retire if he wanted. His mindset evolved because he discovered he wanted to keep working since idle periods would bring him extreme boredom.
The situation at Red Bull was marked by mounting internal conflicts when Newey decided to leave. The power struggles at the team caused him distress even though he performed a vital role in making the team successful. Newey’s departure from Red Bull possibly resulted from team principal Christian Horner’s statements that minimized his significance while giving credit to the technical group for its achievements.

Aston Martin’s managing technical partner position will officially begin for him on March 1, 2025. Owner Lawrence Stroll demonstrates his intentions to turn Aston Martin into a championship-winning team through this strategic move. Newey now observes parallels between this assignment at Aston Martin and his original work at Red Bull during their transformation of Jaguar into championship champions.
Red Bull was a transformed organization when I joined it after Jaguar’s demise because the team had virtually no successful history. Team development at Aston Martin went beyond design work since the team needed to build their entire infrastructure from scratch alongside communication systems and operating methods and team camaraderie. According to Newey his initial assessment suggests that Aston resembles Red Bull more than Jaguar because he has yet to begin work at Aston.
The multiple decades of aerodynamics experience that Newey brings to Aston Martin positions him to be the transformative element the team requires. One of the most compelling rivalries in Formula 1 will develop because of the technological shift as Newey transitions from the Red Bull team to Aston Martin.
