[Saba Sports News] Next season, the F1 Aston Martin team will welcome a heavyweight figure, the legendary designer Adrian Newey. His arrival could enhance the team’s competitive capabilities. However, star driver Fernando Alonso believes that Newey’s impact may only be realized under the new regulations in 2026. Alonso stated, “Currently, there is very little space for development under the rules, so it will be difficult for teams to make significant changes. We are focusing on 2026.” Newey has had a brilliant career and is considered one of the best F1 engineers of all time. As the design master for Red Bull, he has developed several championship-winning cars, contributing significantly to the team’s success. He enjoys a high reputation and status in the field of F1 car design. His addition will undoubtedly elevate the technical level and competitiveness of the Aston Martin team.
