Newey's wife critical of 'b****cks' Red Bull claims

Adrian Newey's wife Amanda has questioned claims discrediting herhusband's efforts in designing the dominant Red Bull RB19. RedBull's Chief Technical Officer, who was honoured in King Charles'New Year's Honours List, has been widely praised for his effortssince joining the F1 grid in the late 1980s but comments from TeamPrincipal Christian Horner suggested Pierre Waché was leading thecharge. Speaking to Motorsport.com , Horner explained: "Adrian is abig part of this team and big part of what we’ve achieved. “But ofcourse, his role has evolved over the last few years and thetechnical team beneath him led by Pierre Wache, they’re doing awonderful job and so that they’re not reliant on Adrian. "He hasthe ability to come in, come out and work on other projects and Ithink that’s part of the evolution of any team. "I was always a bigfan of Manchester United, not as a Man United fan, but of AlexFerguson, they had [Eric] Cantona and then they just evolved," heexplained. "Red Bull is a team that, we're stronger for havingAdrian with us, but of course the rest of the team is evolving."'What a load of hogwash' Responding to posts from two outlets on X[formerly Twitter], Amanda Newey simply wrote: "What a load ofhogwash." Newey also responded to a separate user who suggested theRB19 was not one of her husband's 'championship-winning' cars bysaying: "Absolute b****cks". Red Bull will be hoping to continueits domination over the field with its new RB20 challenger.
