At long last, Aston Martin finally has its new chief technical officer!
Ferrari and Aston Martin have settled the Enrico Cardile transfer saga, as he is poised to become the new chief technical officer at the Silverstone-based team. Earlier reports indicated Ferrari was prohibiting Cardile from joining Aston Martin until he completed a full 12-month gardening leave. Aston Martin’s team principal, Andy Cowell, has confirmed Cardile’s role in overseeing the architecture, design, and structure of the F1 cars, collaborating closely with Adrian Newey. Delays in Cardile’s appointment have caused frustration for Aston Martin’s owner, Lawrence Stroll. Mediation between the two parties initially broke down, leading to lawyers from both sides getting involved. Eventually, a resolution was reached, allowing Cardile to contribute to Aston Martin’s preparations for the new power unit regulations for the upcoming season. A spokesperson for Aston Martin expressed delight in the resolution, highlighting Cardile’s critical future role as Chief Technical Officer at the AMR Technology Campus.
