Red Bull Racing principal Christian Horner expressed that Aston Martin prematurely celebrated the arrival of designer Adrian Newey while he is still under contract with Red Bull Racing. Despite being confirmed as managing technical partner and new shareholder for Aston Martin in a recent announcement event, Newey is tied to Red Bull until March due to contractual obligations. Horner mentioned that Aston Martin’s announcement may have been premature, as Newey is still working on the RB17 hypercar program for Red Bull Racing. Horner acknowledged Newey’s departure next year, noting his unique creativity and the significant contribution he made during their years together. He emphasized that Red Bull Racing is well-positioned for the future, even as they bid farewell to Newey.
