Toto Wolff explains why Mercedes opted against a move for legendary F1 designer Adrian Newey.

Ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Aston Martin confirmed the signing of legendary F1 designer Adrian Newey, who will join the team in March 2025 as managing technical partner following his Red Bull exit.

Newey was heavily linked with Ferrari, Mercedes, McLaren and Williams before ultimately joining Aston Martin. “James and I discussed it, elaborated about it, and came to the conclusion that the structure that we have today is the one that we have faith in and we want to continue with. Wolff said he hopes Newey’s arrival at Aston Martin will help make F1 even more competitive than it currently is.“A great designer, the greatest designer in Formula 1 when you look at the stats, and if you combine it with somebody like Andy Cowell who is, for me, one of the strongest leaders I have ever met in any industry, and if they can make that work, I think it’s a package to be reckoned with.
