It is already a reality. Adrian Newey is part of Aston Martin. He will start working from March next year and will do so entirely on the 2026 car, when the new rules arrive in Formula 1. A new opportunity for Fernando Alonso.
He himself acknowledged this during the event held at Silverstone on Tuesday: “Aston Martin is the team of the future. This is going to be an incredible opportunity for me.”
“We’ve been competing against each other for many years. He’s been an inspiration. He’s made us better as drivers, as teams… It’s an incredible day for the team.” Lawrence Stroll’s vision is formidable” said the two-time Formula 1 champion.
Realizing that Newey is the great engineer of the competition, his opportunity could come again two decades later. It was in 2006 that he was proclaimed champion for the last time with the Renault team.
Lance Stroll, for his part, highlighted this day “as the most exciting day in Aston Martin’s history.”
“It’s a big day, a lot has been said but I think it’s the most exciting day in the history of this team. They’ve won more championships than anyone and now they’re going to wear green. 2026 is not far away and we’re building a very talented team,” the Canadian said.
All eyes are on the green team. “A new era”titled F1 on his social networks.
