Fresh detail on Adrian Newey’s disꦏillusionment with Red Bull and Formula 1 has emerged.

The chief technical officer of F1’s dominant team has confirmed his exit after 19 gl⭕orious years where he desi✨gned the title-winning cars for Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen.

Newey will formally🅘 depart Red Bull in early-2025 and can reportedly take a new job, with a new F1 team, immediately which would꧃ allow him to oversee the 2026 car.

“I’ve gained detail onﷺ why it is that Newey has decided to leave. It isn’ౠt a short-term thing,” ’ Craig Slater reported.

“I have learned that Newey was considering leaving Red Bul🔯l last year.

“Christian Horner had to talk hℱim into, effectively, signing a new contract with the team. Which he did, last May.

“But he has become increasingly disillusioned with the power ✨struggle going on behind-the-scenes at the team.

“There is friction between Salzburg - where Red Bull’s head office, in sporting terms, is ꦯ- and the Formula 1 team base in Mil𒊎ton Keynes.

“And also the wider friction between the Thai majority ownership and the Austrian 49ꦆ% minority ownership.

“That power struggle has made it a diffic෴ult working environment for Newey.

“Additionally,🔯 he is not a fan of the Netflix era of Formula 1 which is so much in the spotlight.

“There is so♌ much commercial focus, as well. That does not sit well with him.”

Drive To Survive, the Netflix series, is a major🌟 success for F1 owners Liberty Media and has grown the fanbase, but has clearly not impressed the legendary Newey.

Ferrari are the team who a🍎re most heavily linked with Newey.

“What I can say, in fac🌃tual terms, is that Newey has told Red Bull that he has not signed an agreement 💙to join another Formula 1 team,” Slater said.

“He would not have a shorta𝐆ge of offers. We know of interest from Ferrari and Aston Martin.

“Well-placed sources at Aston Martin felt that, if Newey went elsewhere, 𒁏Ferrari was the more enticing proposition.”

Ferrari also welcome Lewis Hamilton in 2025 so adding F1’s best-ever car designer🌸 would be a colossal coup.

However, it has not b♔een ruled out that Newey could steꦺp away from F1 altogether.

“I’ve spoken to a number of people close to Newey, who 🍨understand it will be a matter of weeks until𒁏 he decides what to do,” Slater reported.

“Retirement isn’t out of the question. He is 65 ye🍰ars♈ old.”
