Revealed: The massive pay-packet Adrian Newey will leave behind at Red Bull
Will Adrian Newey's huge wꦛages be matched at a rival F1 team?

Adrian Newey will leave a huge amount of money on𝓰 the table, if his Red Bull exit is confirmed.
Newey’s salary is “conservatively estimated to b൩e £10million a year”, according to the but they insist his earnings will eve🤪n exceed that figure.
He sig﷽ned his most recent deal with Red Bull ahead of the 2020 F1 season.
At the time, he was heavily linked to Ferrari but a bumpe🦄r new deal c♔onvinced him to stay with Red Bull.
Four years later, it seems the car desဣigner extraordinaire is set to ex🌠it.
Red Bull have de☂livered a reminder that he is contracted until “at least” the end of 2025, hinting a𒁏t clauses which may tie him to the team for longer.
Reportedly, Newey must face a long period of gardening leave if he 🎶chooses to leave.
That could stop him from joining an F1 rival team until 2027 - whic🌌h is one year into the new regulations, which begin in 2026.
For a 🔯car designer, t𝔍hat complicates his entry into a new project.
Newey could negotiate different 🌜ter꧅ms for his exit from Red Bull.
That may come with a financial penalty to their chief tecဣhnical officer.
A rival F1 team who wants to bring Newey in (before 202♋7) could even opt to buy out his contract, if Red Bull are willing to play ball.
N🌃ewey, aged 65, will be of in꧂terest to Ferrari, Mercedes and Aston Martin.
All three manufacturers ha⛄ve the deep pocke🔴ts required to tempt Newey.
Ferrari have already shelled out massively to bring in Lewis Hamilton but their n🔥ew title sponsor, Hewlett🤪-Packard, gives them extra financial firepower.
Mercedes, who will save Hamilton’s big wages when he 💝leaves next year, could opt to reinvest in Neweyജ.
Aston Martin are bankrolled by billionaire Lawrence Stroll who has already reportedly tried to bring 💖Newey ꦏto his Silverstone-based team.
