Adrian Newey has officially started work at his new post with Aston Martin F1. Newey has been a staple in the design of Formula 1 cars for years and Lawrence Stroll seized the opportunity to bring him in to assist with Aston Martin’s goals of achieving a championship in Formula 1. Although the move has been known for quite some time. It is yet to be determined how big of an impact he will have on the Aston Martin program. The team has shown glimpses of brilliance but there hasn’t been sustained success since the team’s inception.
Newey bring over 20 years of car designing experience to Aston Martin. The team will needed it after a poor outing during teh Bahrain test which the team logged the second lowest about of testing time out of all of the teams this past weekend. The lowest was Newey’s former post Red Bull who are navigating multiple issues on their front to reproduce another championship winning car. The clock is ticking until the season opener and then and only then will we have a true read out of where the new AM25 stands against the competition.
