Ferrari is working hard to secure Adrian Newey’s services for when he becomes available in early 2025. Newey will leave Red Bull in the first quarter of 2025 after nearly two decades with the team, as his contract contained a 12-month non-compete clause. With assistance from Eddie Jordan, Newey has secured an early Red Bull exit to potentially join another team by early 2025. Although no deal is confirmed, Ferrari is believed to be the most appealing move for Newey in F1. If he joins Ferrari, Newey’s lateral thinking and expertise could significantly impact the design of the 2026 car. Lewis Hamilton is enthusiastic about the prospect of Newey joining Ferrari, emphasizing his track record and potential as a valuable addition to the team.
