Legendary Formula 1 designer Adrian Newey is set to join Aston Martin in 2025 following his departure from Red Bull.
The 65-year-old's exit from his role as chief technical officer at Red Bull was confirmed in May after an apparent breakdown in his relationship with team principal Christian Horner. He agreed to remain with the company until early 2025 to see out his work on their first hypercar, the RB17. Sky Sports News reported Ferrari and Aston Martin had approached Newey, who visited the latter's Silverstone factory in June.
Honda will supply Aston Martin with a power unit from 2026, when the first season of the new technical regulations begin, and Alonso has previously declared the team have the best project for the future. The Silverstone-based team opened a new factory last year and have a new wind tunnel, which underlines their ambition to succeed in F1.
