Newey’s manager Jordan reacts to Aston Martin news
F1 News
It's been one of the biggest questions in the paddock: Where will Adrian Newey sign? After joining Red Bull Racing in 2006, the master designer left the team after the Miami Grand Prix weekend. Questions were then asked about where Newey would end up in Formula 1, with Ferrari seemingly being his rumoured destination. However, after months of speculation, Aston Martin will be the destination for the Brit. But Newey's manager Eddie Jordan refuses to comment on the news.
During the Italian Grand Prix, rumours about Adrian Newey's future in F1 filled the paddock. Then, on the Tuesday after the Grand Prix in Monza, GPblog could confirm that the deal between Aston Martin and the British designer was complete and that an official announcement would be made in the coming days. It would also see Newey join back up with former Red Bull colleague Dan Fallows, who was head of aerodynamics at the Austrian team while Newey was still there. Fallows then joined Aston Martin in 2022 to become their technical director.
Jordan refuses to answer questions on Newey's news
But even though the deal between Newey and Aston Martin is already complete, Jordan refuses to confirm if the two parties have confirmed a deal. In a comment made to BBC Sport, the former F1 team boss said: "I am not prepared to answer. I will not be forthcoming in any shape or form."
Jordan may not make any comments on the Newey deal, but Aston Martin owner Lawrence Stroll will, with the Canadian coming out and saying that he and Newey "have been talking for years."
