Aston Martin officially confirms Adrian Newey signing

Aston Martin has officially confirmed that acclaimed British designer Adrian Newey will join the team on March 1 in a new role as Managing Technical Partner.

The team announced the move overnight, which has been touted since Newey revealed he was departing Red Bull after the 2024 season.

“I am thrilled to be joining the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team,” said Newey.

“I have been hugely inspired and impressed by the passion and commitment that Lawrence (Stroll) brings to everything he is involved with.

“Lawrence is determined to create a world-beating team. He is the only majority team owner who is actively engaged in the sport. His commitment is demonstrated in the development of the new AMR Technology Campus and wind tunnel at Silverstone, which are not only state of the art but have a layout that creates a great environment to work in.

“Together with great partners like Honda and Aramco, they have all the key pieces of infrastructure needed to make Aston Martin a world championship-winning team, and I am very much looking forward to helping reach that goal.”

In an established career with teams including Williams, McLaren, and Red Bull, Newey’s car designs have won 13 constructors’ championships and 12 driver’s championships.

His new big-money move sees the 65-year-old become a team shareholder and receive a salary estimated to be worth NZD 42.5 million per year, which is more than 18 of the 20 drivers in the sport.

“This is huge news,” said Aston Martin Executive Chairman Lawrence Stroll.

“Adrian is the best in the world at what he does – he is at the top of his game – and I am incredibly proud that he is joining the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. It’s the biggest story since the Aston Martin name returned to the sport and another demonstration of our ambition to build a Formula One team capable of fighting for world championships.

“As soon as Adrian became available, we knew we had to make it happen. Our initial conversations confirmed that there was a shared desire to collaborate in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“Adrian is a racer and one of the most competitive people I have ever met. When he saw what we have built at Silverstone – our incredible AMR Technology Campus, the talented group of people we have assembled and the latest wind tunnel in the sport – he quickly understood what we are trying to achieve. We mean business – and so does he.

“Adrian shares our hunger and ambition, he believes in this project, and he will help us write the next chapter in Aston Martin Aramco’s Formula One story.”
