“Two teams that are not currently on the grid” ask for Adrian Newey
Eddie Jordan drops new revelation about the hunt to sign Adrian Newe🔜y

Adrian Newey’s admirers include at least 12 teams - that’s the entire F1 grid plus more.
His manager, the former Formula 1 team owner Eddie Jordan, reveal💝ed that interest in Newey is even more widespread that original⛎ly thought.
Red Bull chief technology officerಞ Newey will exit his job next year and will become available for a new employer in 2025.
“Every single team in Formula 1 has spoken to us,” Jordan said on the Formula For Succeꦑss podcast.
🧔“And, indeed, two teams who are not currently on the grid at the moment.
“I’ll let people think about that…”
Jordan would not name the two teams ♒who are not currently on the F1 grid that 🍎are interested in Newey.
But, if his assertions are correct, then trying to bring in Newey suggests a confidence that they will🎃 soon join Formula 1.
Audi are the most notable manufacturer who will officially enter F1 in 2026. They areꦗ running 🦄as Sauber this year, and next.
Newey has been most se▨riously linked with Asto🧔n Martin and Ferrari.
Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle tried to cheekily ask Asto🍨n Martin owner Lawrence Stroll last weekend at Zandvoort about his pursuit of Newey.
Brundle asked durin🌱g his grid walk: “When do🌌es Adrian Newey start with you?”
Stroll respo♏nded: “I did not say that Adrian Newey was st♒arting with me.”
Jordan was asked to comment on that exchange - and the likelihooꦕd of Aston Martin winning the race for Newe⛄y - but bluntly said “no”.
His revelation that all 10 of the current F1 teams have got in touch ꦰto ask about Newey 🍌is perhaps no surprise.
McLaren have since ruled themselves out, while Neweಌy’s other former team Williams have reportedly made their in𝕴terest known.
Mercedes - who have their own substantial technical team, also - have never been at the forefront of ❀talking up t꧟heir chances to recruit Newey but Jordan’s words suggest they also made contact.
Newey is no closer🦹 to announcing where his next move will be.
The 65-year-old is free to start work with a new F1 tea♍m next year, meaning he can aid the development of their 2026 car.
The new regulations begin in 2026 creating 🅠an opportunity for a new period of dominance to start.
