Adrian Newey has “rejected” a🎀 big-money offer to join Aston Martin, it has been claimed.

F1 analys𝐆t Peter Windsor ꧟insisted he’s heard on the Formula 1 grapevine that Newey will not join the Silverstone-based team.

The car design genius has rocked F1 with news that he is s𝓀et to quit Red Bull, the team he helped to dominate the sport by creating some of the best cars ever.

Windsor said via : “He’s got plenty of ꧑options.”

He responded🦹 to whether Fernando Alonso signed a ne🍃w Aston Martin deal because he was promised that Newey would follow.

“It’s possible,” Windsor said. “I think Alonso would꧙ have signed the deal anyway even without this promise.

“Because💯 it’s a team where he’s found a home, he’s got good backing, the Strolls like him, he’s doing a good job for Lance, it’s going🦂 to get better and better, they have great facilities.

“They al𓂃l want to have Adrian Newey. That’s a point that needs♌ to be made.

“Ferrari, Mercedes, Aston Mart🔜in would all want Newey🥃, for sure.

“My understanding is that he’s already been offered a lot of money by Aramco, and Ast🅺on.

“And he has turned🌠 it down. That is my understanding of what the Aston situation is.

“It doesn’t surprise me. He doesn’t need th𒁃e money. Money isn’t a motivation for him.

“It’s🍸 racing. It’s whether he enjoꦛys it, whether it fits with whatever he wants to do, other things in life.

“Throw a billion pounds at him now? It won’t make a lot of differ♓ence.

“It m💦ight have 10 years ago, or eight years ago. Now? I don’t think so.

“My understanding is that he’s already re🐈jected that.

“So I’d be su🐲rprised if he goes to Aston. Of course, it is still poss🌠ible.

“The next one is Mercedes. They will ꦑ🅷offer him a lot of money, I’d imagine.

“Hꦬe’ll think Mercedes or Ferrari ‘whi♛ch one do I want to go to?’

“They are two big, political 🐷teams. Thꦅey have won races recently, he knows he could do a good job recently.

“My gut feeling is that he’d rather go to Ferrar𝓡i, 🌱of those two.

“He probably has a lot of faith in Fred Vasseur.

“But it brings with it 𝓡a lot꧃ of drama. Politics, pressure…”

Red Bull insisted on Thursday that they were unaware of Ne🎀wey quitting.

He is on a contract until the end of 2025, the team confirm🔯ed.

But it has been r𓂃eported that Newey has told senior colleagues at Red Bull about his intention to exit.
