Aston Martin team boss Mike Krack says the ‘door is always open’ for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen amid speculation they will make a move for the Red Bull F1 driver following the signing of Adrian Newey.

On Tuesday, Aston Martin unveiled Newey as the head of their techni🔴cal team from 2025.

Given Newey’s links to Verstappen at Red Bull, and Aston Martin teaming up with Hondaꦺ from 2026, speculation about a move from Lawrence Stroll for the three-time wཧorld champion is already rife.

Speaking on Thursday at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Krack was asked about the prospect of signing Verstappe🌸n.

He said: “The door for Max Verstappen is always open, for e☂verything.”

It’s likely Aston Martin won’t be able to sign Verstappen until 2027, with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso locked in until the end of 2026.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll’s future is secure given his father, Lawre𒁏nce, o꧑wns the team.

Krack feels the signing of Newey will have an immediate impಌact.

“It will make a difference for everybody starting ༒with the staff,” he explained. “When you manage to appoint Adrian Newey, it’s first of all, it’s a proof that the project is cr♌edible.

“That the whole vision of Lawrence is not only words but action. That we can take confidenc𝐆e as a team. Thi🎃s is not any more underdogs like it used to be in the past. It’s a team that should be confident it can do it.

“You have a completely different approach now with partners. Same for race drivers. I think it opens a lot of doors for the future.”

He added: “We will be more a🤡ttractive in every area, just because of signing. Due to the increased credibility because it proves this project can really achieve itꦜs targets and if I was in university and would see this signing, I would say: 'I can probably learn most there, so let's try to get there'. So I think there will be that effect.”
