Adrian Newey is already at Aston Martin. This Tuesday, he was presented with great fanfare at the factory in the company of Lawrence Stroll, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll. And the great engineer left a brutal phrase about the Asturian rider, who could have a new opportunity in 2026 to become world champion.
“Fernando and I fought for many years, he was sometimes my sworn enemy. “We were close to having him join Red Bull in 2008 but unfortunately that couldn’t happen and we continue to fight against each other,” Newey said in his presentation.
“He’s a legend and I really want to work with him”said the engineer.
Alonso also had words of praise for him: “We have been competing against each other for many years. It has been an inspiration. It made us better as drivers, as teams… It’s an incredible day for the team. Lawrence Stroll’s vision is great. Aston Martin is the team of the future. “It’s going to be an incredible opportunity for me.”
“You can learn a lot from them. It’s an incredible opportunity we have to work with Lawrence and everyone at Aston Martin.” It’s part of our growth” said the two-time Formula 1 champion.
