Ever since Adrian Newey announced he was closing the door at Red Bull Racing in mid-2025, there has been speculation about where the 65-year-old Briton will continue his career. Ferrari seems the most serious destination, Aston Martin have been mentioned (although the British team denies Newey is in the picture, ed), and Mercedes are also said to be an option for the successful designer. But admitting that Newey is on the radar, these teams do not. Williams did earlier; team boss James Vowles is keen to bring Red Bull's current CTO back to the old nest.
