GOOD NEWS: Verstappen responds to Newey joining Aston Martin while Red Bull works to address the issues with the RB20
Max Verstappen has wished Adrian Newey well at Aston Martin after it was finally confirmed that the Silverstone-based outfit will be his next destination when he leaves Red Bull.
Aston Martin announced on Tuesday that Newey – who is seeing out his final few months at Red Bull after almost two decades on board – is set to join them as their new Managing Technical Partner on March 1, 2025.
It brings to an end a lengthy collaboration between driver and engineer, with Verstappen claiming all of his 61 Grand Prix wins and three world titles to date in Newey-designed cars.
Newey’s plans being confirmed also coincides with a challenging spell for Red Bull, who have gone without a race win since June’s Spanish Grand Prix, shortly after their star designer stepped back from F1 duties.
