Lance Stroll has backed Aston Martin’s “exciting” venture in Formula 1 to be enough to entice design legend Adrian Newey to choose it as his next team in the series. Red Bull announced last month that Newey had communicated his desire to bring an end to an illustrious near two-decade spell that’s comprised 13 championships. […]
Red Bull recently confirmed that Adrian Newey expressed his intention to conclude his successful nearly two-decade tenure, which includes 13 championships won. Following the agreed departure date next Spring, various teams are now racing to secure the renowned British engineer’s services in Formula 1. Among the suitors are Ferrari and Aston Martin, the latter being actively pursued by Lawrence Stroll striving to elevate the team to championship contention. Aston Martin is rumored to have made a compelling offer and even hosted a private tour for Newey at their facility earlier this week. Stroll believes that Aston Martin’s promising trajectory in the sport presents an appealing opportunity for Newey amid the intense competition for his expertise. Despite speculation, Stroll, as the team owner’s son, noted he does not have full insight into the progress of negotiations but emphasized Newey’s legendary status and widespread appeal in the paddock. On the other hand, Fernando Alonso, who has expressed interest in collaborating with Newey before, refrained from commenting on the ongoing rumors, highlighting the volatile and unsubstantiated nature of speculation in Formula 1.
