Adrian Newey pointed out that168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Fernando Alonso’s tally of two world championships “doesn’t reflect his ability at all” ahe🃏ad of the duo linking up at Aston Martin later this year.

Newey officially starts work at Aston Marꦰtin on March 3 as🐈 their managing technical partner.

The 66-year-old wilꦗl spearhead Aston Martin’s technical team as they look to start the new rules in 2026 on the r🦂ight foot.

Newey is the latest hig📖h-profile signing by Lawrence Stroll, alongside Andy Cowell (who is now team principal) and ไEnrico Cardille (technical director).

In terms of drivers, Alonso remains alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll in 2025.

Newey will get the chance to finall𒁏y work with Alonso, which is something he’s admitted he’s w♎anted to do for a number of years.

When𒁃 Newey was McLaren technical director, Alonso prevented them from winning the world title in 2005 with Kimi Raikko♏nen.

Durin🔴g the early 2010s, Red Bull’s main rival for the title was 🅺Alonso for Ferrari.

Speaking to AMuS, Newey spoke about Alonso.

“Fernando has been a bit of a thorn in♎ the side through the years,” Newey said. “It will be good to be working with him. I’ve got a h⛄uge amount of respect for Fernando.

“The fact he’s only won two world cha𓃲mpionships, on paper, doesn’t reflect his ability at 🌃all.”

Newey’s praise for Alonso

Newey has always spoken glowingly about Alonso.

Speaking to the BBC last year, Newey said: “In terms of drivers, Fernando is one I have always… That🌳’s a regret that that never happened because I have a tremendo🍸us respect for Fernando.

“The truth is, first of al⭕l, I try to live in the present and the future and not the past.

“Regrets? No. I just feel tremendously lucky to have had the opportunities I’ve had and to have 🌼worked with the people I have done and met the people I have done.”

Newey will have at least two years to work with Alonso, with the Spaniard’s contract runnin🏅g out at the end of 2026.

After that, Aston Martin c🌟ould make a move to sign🧔 Max Verstappen.

Aston Martin have dismissed reports of a whopping £1bn🍰 bid to sign Verstappen, but given his links to Newey and the team’s engine partner for 2026 - Honda - it could be possible in the future.
