Only Ferrari has won more constructors championships than Adrian Newey

Ferrari - 16
Adrian Newey - 12
Williams - 9
McLaren - 8
Mercedes - 8

Fun fact: Newey-designed cars have won a title with every engine on the current grid (Mercedes, Renault, Honda) except Ferrari 👀

I really hope Red Bull sends Adrian Newey up to the podium one last time before he leaves.

He deserves a grand send off after all he’s done for the team.

“i think latifi secretly gets his free redbull supply” MAX 😭😭💀💀💀

The end of Red Bull’s domination could have the makings of Ferrari’s political power struggle which helped end the Schumacher era & the brain drain that led to Mercedes’ downfall at last regulation change.

All eyes on Max Verstappen’s future now after Adrian Newey’s departure.

Imagining Red Bull without Adrian Newey doesn’t feel right.

Red Bull has won 7 drivers’ championships, 6 constructors’ titles, 117 races & 100 poles since Newey joined in 2006.

He also was able to help two Red Bull prodigies in Vettel & Verstappen reach their full potential.

The easiest way to increase your odds of winning a title is by adding Adrian Newey: His cars have won at least 1 championship (drivers and/or constructors) in 42.4% of the 33 seasons (14/33) since he designed the Williams FW14 in 1991.

I bet Ferrari knows that already.

The Team announces that Chief Technical Officer Adrian Newey will leave the Red Bull Technology Group in the first quarter of 2025.

The biggest fear of Adrian Newey leaving Red Bull isn’t if the car will still be good without him. It likely will. They have a strong & sharp engineering team.

The real fear is what if Newey’s exit has a chain reaction & others start jumping ship. Then Red Bull is in trouble.

Starting to sound like Adrian Newey will be free to work for his next team in 2025, which would allow his input to go into the new 2026 regs.

This is huge news for teams like Ferrari potentially.

This becomes even better if you assume Craig Slater’s quest to uncover the latest news about Adrian Newey led him to a Miami beach where he finally discovered the answers we needed.

Mercedes has somehow managed to do the unthinkable - build a car that even Adrian Newey doesn’t want to fix.

What a way for Red Bull to lose one of the top minds in F1 history and pillar of their team.

Charles Leclerc is only one of two drivers without a championship out of the top 10 best pole % in F1 history (min. 2 poles).

Stirling Moss (24.24%) and Leclerc (17.83%) are the only two. A testament to Charles' brilliant one-lap pace.

The 2023 Miami GP was decided when Max Verstappen was doing better lap times on 30-40 lap old hard tyres than Sergio Perez was doing on newer hard tyres.

From P9 to P1. One of Max's biggest statement wins ended any talk of Checo challenging for the drivers' title.

Max Verstappen is on a streak of 11 consecutive wins in North America & could make it 12 in a row in Miami this Sunday.

The 2024 Miami GP wil mark 1646 days or almost 5 whole years since Max last lost a race in North America.

Lando gets the 1st win of his career!

This Toto Wolff quote about signing Max Verstappen from last week is all I can think about since the Adrian Newey leaving Red Bull rumours started 🤔
