The Beginning of a Journey
Adrian Newey began his racing career as a young engineer. His passion for speed and technology has led him to work with some of the most prestigious English teams. But there was something that pushed him beyond the borders of England.
The Ferrari Temptation
Ferrari, the dream of every motor enthusiast. Adrian Newey had more than one opportunity to work with the Italian team, but he always refused. Not because he didn’t love Ferrari’s proposals, but because it meant leaving his beloved England. The English teams were within reach, and moving to Italy seemed like a leap into the unknown.
The Contract Clause
But there is a story circulating in the corridors of Formula 1. A clause in Adrian Newey’s contract that says: “If you want to leave, leave.” And so, when Red Bull knocked on his door, Adrian Newey decided to return to the world of racing. He gratifies her by being able to design road cars and do other things beyond that Formula 1 lor dragged back into the racing circus.
