With Aston Martin reportedly having made a big money move for Adrian Newey, could his regret that working with Fernando Alonso “never happened” serve as crucial motivation to change that?
Newey has established himself as one of, if not the greatest
designer in Formula 1 history, his designs having achieved title success with
Williams, McLaren and Red Bull. Could Aston Martin be next?
Adrian Newey could finally have Fernando Alonso dream union
According to reports in British media, Aston Martin team
owner Lawrence Stroll approached Newey during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix
weekend, Round 2 of the F1 2024 campaign, in a bid to lure him down the road to
Silverstone.
Newey is viewed as the prized asset of F1’s current ground
effect era which began in 2022, Red Bull having hoovered up all the titles on
offer with a remarkable record of 40 grands prix wins out of 47.
