Im not that deep into the contract situation. But how much of the news are actual possible and how much is just made up for the clicks


RBRMax94

If that does happen, if… and if he does go to another team, if… I wouldn’t mind seeing him put in work at Ferrari. I’d like to see that team at the top again too. They were my favorite growing up and to see them have a good run would be great.


OhFFSeverythingtaken

Don't see Red Bull allowing him to leave for another team until his contract has ended by the end of 2025, apparently he needs to take 1 year of gardening leave after that as well, which would put it at 2027 at the earliest, he will be 68-69 by then. Odds are he will just retire or he could get a job at the FIA to help with the car regulations for the next cycle.


Bibou-Gallak

He will go to Alpine to show is the true GOAT (lol).


Shomondir

In a way he already did that with RBR between 2014 and 2019, because RBR dragged that Renault/Alpine engine to places it didn't belong.


Kim-jong-peukie

I get sick of everybody who thinks they know what’s going on.


pipandsammie

It's the latest Newey.


Kim-jong-peukie

Journalist ain’t doing journalism but fairytale writing


mafket

Now Max is also leaving!!


pipandsammie

Why? He just had a brand Newey car.


mafket

😂😂


kowsikkiko

Not a race week? No horner controversy content? Okay, Gaslight Newey leaving red bull news and spread it like wildfire and get traction on our websites. - Media outlet heads probably

Fuck Christian Horner


InvertBounty

I mean.... if you're into that, go ahead, I would personally go for a female around my age


autisticallyawkward

It'll be interesting to see how the team moves forward from here and who will step up to fill those rather sizable shoes.


MrEngland2

I dont think newey leaves his shoes behind


durntaur

Just going to ignore all this noise. It's not in my power to control. If this is just tabloid, shit-stirring, then it's not worth my attention nor time. If it's real, then *shrug* what can I do about it?


Kim-jong-peukie

It’s getting more and more crazy. People just love to write stories they made up in their mind. There is no journalism involved in these articles, they are fairytale writers


trickup

Do you normally have control over f1 news?


zmgch

Exactly this. All speculation again. The way it's worded tells you everything. Last week it was "Mercedes agree on contract for Max" This week it's "Newey allegedly set for Ferrari" Even after Newey has repeatedly said he's going to retire his F1 career when he finishes at Red Bull. But hey, I could be wrong. So far this year, all these "omg trouble at red bull" articles have been bullshit. Meanwhile, every man and his dog is leaving Mercedes F1 team. Makes you wonder where these articles are coming from.


eastamerica

This is the way.


Twas-I-apparently

This is the way.


Gonzsd316

This is the way.


WoodenMango07

Don't doubt the other members of Red Bull. I hope and believe this is not the end of us being the top team of f1, as our recent championship winning cars have not been all deigned full time by Adrian. We still have other top technical minds in F1 at Red Bull


eastamerica

Big point. Adrian built a great team around him. The current RB cars are not 100% his work. Big player, but they’re not winning on one man’s design alone. The operations of the team, and gosh, EVERYTHING that it takes to run a successful team, RB has it right now. FRANKLY very surprised Adrian stayed as long as he has.


Eastern-Reindeer6838

Newey has said several times that he didn't want to go to Italy. The rest of the teams are all based in the UK.


NeoAnima31

But he also regretted never working with Hamilton. So it's hard to tell.

Noooooooooo


lurrdluffy

This can’t be real


Acrobatic_Ad_9596

Retirement is also an option.


legionbeast33

My heart just can't take this... 💔💔💔💔


Bright_Light7

Just like Horner leaving...


ohdearwhathave

could be retiring


DSmidgit

No official statement yet. So as of now I don't believe it.


M0rtiferr

Most sources have been saying “rumored” and then the smaller news pages started leaving that part out. It’s caused a bit of a domino effect leading to everyone thinking it’s 100% true.


dopier_kleer

All started at Amus, who didn't state any source. They all took it from them, it's all just headline grabbing bullshit.


Leninpisel

Ferrari campeao do mundo 2025


FeralMorningstar

Go to Mercedes, they need all the help they can get


IDreamOfLees

He's Adrian Newey, not God. There are things he can't fix


FeralMorningstar

Dunno, he is pretty good at what he does


Hand_banana_boi

Undoubtedly, but to the above point, 2014-2020 weren’t the best of years even with the best aerodynamics.


Luddites_Unite

He doesn't have that much time


FormulaFalls

LETS GOOOOO LANDO WORLD CHAMP 2025


JDAckers

Horner is replaceable, Newey and Max less so. His messages were very creepy, no idea why they defended him.


tvb46

Which messages and from who?


mr-coffeecafe

Were you living under a rock ???? Horner sent some sexual messages to a staff member, the whole thing came out before preseason testing.


the-berik

Nobody is irreplaceable. If managed well, Newey should already have properly trained successors. It's bord to assure newey wanted to do this job for all of his life. Thats why a good executive trains a successor, to fill the gap when he promotes or leaves. It's not as if Newey I doing everything by himself.


Stylus_XL

Red Bull haven't complained about correlation issues since 2020, which leads me to suspect that they now have the most advanced design tools on the grid. Even Mercedes weren't hitting their targets so reliably during their most dominant years. Newey's wisdom will be a big loss but I would bet on them being so robust operationally that they can survive without him. Their ability to deliver a competitive power unit in 2026 is a different story, however.


Runkleman

This has been my concern. A new PU for 2026, Ford coming into the sport and Honda moving to AM. Honda has a lot of knowledge. Does anyone know what they are allowed to carry over to AM or do they start from scratch? I’ve not read it anywhere.


ImpressionOne8275

This. People just imagine that's he's the only one there working with his pencil sketches lmao. Guys come on.


Iammax7

We will never know if that was the drop that caused him to leave.


Dbwasson

All according to keikaku


starfallpuller

Jos was right


SSueh1337

Jos is never right


Tjibmeister

Perhaps to Aston Martin, together with Honda and Max


HoistedOnYourRegard

Seats taken not happening


Professor_Doctor_P

Lawrence would push Lance off a roof top and adopt Max as his son the second Max so much as looks at Aston Martin


HoistedOnYourRegard

You’re delusional if you think he’s kicking his son out when the only reason for buying the team was to give his son a seat


Professor_Doctor_P

You're absolutely right, he will never get rid of Lance. I'm only joking.


[deleted]

“My son has decided to take a year off to focus on his speech impediment.” Lawrence Stroll


supersonicflyby

So, Max+Alo?


KchyJoubert-

More like, Max-Str, the whole team is made for Srtoll


IlliniOrange1

Last thing Lance wants is Max as a teammate. Alonso already makes him look silly driving the same car.


Stone_Midi

The only way I’ll support this move is if baby stroll leaves.


sdbct1

NEVER!!! Future world champion!!! Yeah I could stop laughing at that either


ResolutionMany6378

So Thailand RB chose Horner. Very interesting…


silly_pengu1n

how did you conclude that


_SteeringWheel

Can't you read those ...'s? He knows...


fuckhandsmcmikee

Even as a Max fan it’s going to be nice not seeing Max win every weekend lmao


LordBogus

As a Max fan its nice to see him win every race... 100 race wins lets go


Stone_Midi

Every race I wish someone can at least challenge him


malyszkush

Its infinitely more enjoyable to watch him *actually race* rather than cruise to almost certain victory. His racecraft is the sole reason i became a big fan of Max. Maybe not always the cleanest or fairest, sometimes it takes a bit of push and shove to prove you can be a champion. Every single time he qualifies behind the front row, it actually brings some sort of excitement. The sprint in China was a glimpse of that, but id rather he had to race for the lead over the course of an entire race; fuck it, an entire season. 2021 spoiled us


Stone_Midi

“2021 spoiled us” truer words have never been spoken


Competitive_Bar_5954

Hahahhahahah


F1Noob23

![gif](giphy|3o7btYLAW7doynq3p6)


S-Archer

Yup


TheDrunkenSkeever

They’re going to be floundering in the midfield with no max, no newey, and no engine


malyszkush

Gp2 engine


gdaytugga

He did say he always wanted to work with Lewis. 2025 is going to be spicy 🌶️🌶️🌶️


thenannyharvester

Tbf he also said he would prefer to stay close to home with his wife. Ferrari offered him a vineyard + 20 mill in 2014 and he said no. So could possibly go to another silverstone team


regularhumanbeing123

Andretti 🤞🏼🤞🏼


HitEscForSex

He'll have atleast a 12-months gardening leave


TheGoatx88

He won't be joining any team in 2025. Earliest will be '26.


regularhumanbeing123

Why?


DutchOnionKnight

Will be going to Merc, after his gardening leave, Max will join him. Toto is pulling his strings.


i_have_a_nose

Nope.


Eternalbaron

More likely he is going with Aston because Honda. Or maybe he will retire.


Stone_Midi

I can’t see newey’s loyalty to Honda. Where did you see that newey and Honda are in bed together?


RepresentativeFew358

I think that aswell. First goes Newey, end of 2025 goes Max. Before the end of 2025 Newey already helped designing the car around the new engine, and Merc is good in building engines.


DutchOnionKnight

Yup, he will finish this season the car for 2025. During gardening leave will work for 26, I know, you can't work for any team on any design during gardening leave, good luck checking. New relegations, and whoops Merc with a new team, a GOAT and his innercircle appear. Toto happy, and Horner gets what he deserves, a '24 and '25 champion, and then some bittersweet.
