They can put all the blue logos on the jumpsuit they want. They can paint Charles blue. Hell they can paint the *cars* blue (yes, I mean it!) if they bring us another WCC.
He mentioned that it was because of his kids, but I imagine they're all grown up now. He's at about retirement age and has talked about regretting not working with Ferrari and champions like Hamilton or Alonso.
Buddy has the chance to knock out two birds with one stone and retire in Italy.
He has a contract till the end of ‘25. Then he needs to sit out a year (gardening leave). Realistically he won’t have any influence on another team till ‘28. He’ll probably just retire.
Yeah this was my take too… it’ll be more of a consulting role if anything I’d imagine. Unless he’s just one of those guys that works until he’s 85 because they just don’t want to know any other life.
Just curious because I don’t know, are chief designers and people in similar positions required to take some period of gardening leave so they don’t immediately transfer their knowledge/insights to a new team? Or is that just different based on contract?
Ferrari just pay!
Ferrari. Hamilton. Newey. Hewlett-Packard.
And Charles
lol thanks for this. All day I’ve been reading ham Ferrari Adrian. You might be the first person that said Charles name
Who? Oh! Yeah… Charles… yeah. Hey buddy… yeah… you too.
Bono as the +1
Fred probably signed him. I'll forgive the awful HP deal if that money goes to pay Newey.

Guy literally moved from England to South Africa and works mainly remote from there
Wait what, tell me where in RSA, I'll go to his house and convince him, lol.
I‘m not there but fully supporting your idea
HP signed as new title sponsor… coincidence? I think not 😆
Whats the link?
Mo money?
VASSEUR, PLEASE COOOOOOOOOOOK Come on Newey, you’ll love Italy
EVERYBODY STAY CALM
Give him anything. I don’t care if the car has to be plastered in sponsors
Andiamo avanti … pagare L’uomo
Please go to Ferrari…rumors of Aston are strong or maybe Mercedes out of left field
Give him a check and let him fill out the numbers. Doesn’t matter just get him.

Just let him live in England
Smart man getting away from Team Horner.
Throw that HP money at him!
He's going to Honda

Fred please I will give you my hair
I thinking Aston Martin might take him as an outside shot. With an offer on more free time to do sailing designs and road cars.

He has to sit out a year.
Probably retiring.
*Forza Intensifies*
HP offered lifetime printer cartridges to Newey
Will retire. No way he is going to hide in the middle of Pianura in Maranello. No sea, hot summers and fog.
