Adrian Newey is Aston Martin’s biggest signing yet. But is the team ready to get the most out of him?
Aston Martin’s expected confirmation later this morning that it has signed design legend Adrian Newey is a game-changing moment for the team.
For if there is one individual who has a bit of a midas touch, then Newey – having helped guide his three most recent teams (Williams, McLaren and Red Bull) to multiple championship success – would be your prime candidate.
His tally of 12 constructors’ titles, with 13 drivers’ championships having been won in his cars, says all you need to know about his influence.
But success in F1 is never down to just one individual. The greatest geniuses in the world will never achieve success if they do not have the right people and infrastructure around them.
