Adrian Newey issues Aston Martin update after Red Bull “blocked my tools”:
— Adrian Newey has officially signed with Aston Martin but admits he will be “behind the curve” due to Red Bull’s restrictions and the F1 2026 regulations.
— Newey, widely regarded as one of the greatest F1 car designers, has left Red Bull after contributing to all 14 of their Drivers’ and Constructors’ titles.
— He will join Aston Martin as ‘managing technical partner,’ starting March 2, 2025, after a soft gardening leave period following his Red Bull departure.
— Red Bull blocked Newey’s access to tools like CAD systems during his leave, leaving him over two months behind on the upcoming F1 2026 regulation work.
“No, they can’t, but they’ve blocked my tools.”
“So obviously, Aston wants to do the best job they can in ’25, but my main kind of focus will be the ’26 regulations and this big change, because I start on March 2.”
“The aero rules come out, I think, 1 January, or might be the second, whatever the working day is.”
“So I’ll already be kind of two months behind the curve. But in truth, of course, it’s more than that, because not only will I be behind on the looking at those regulations compared to when they’ve come out… With the way the regulations have gone, you really need to be in front of a CAD [computer-aided design] system as well, to be able to understand all the boxes and so forth. They’re so prescribed.”
“But also, it will be getting to know a new team, getting to know all the guys and girls there and how we all work together.”
