If Newey really comes to AM, even just in next march, i dont know how gardening works but, honestly i refuse to believe Newey doesnt will give " a little help" to the next car in "behind the scenes". Cardille shouldnt start in january 2025? only before summer?

All I want is one more in true Fernando fashion. Grab that forking car by the neck and drag it to where Fernando belongs regardless of whether the car does it or not.

Next Tuesday at 11am (UK time) should be the official announcement, if sources are right and nothing out of the ordinary happens

Any team that signs Newey can already challenge for the World Championship in 2025, mark that down.
IF he joins....I fully expect RB to put in some gardening leave clauses. 2025 development is probably already underway so it might be too late to have a championship winning car. Race winning car by the end of next year is more realistic even though still unlikely. This all contingent to the fact that Newey actually joins. I will not be taking anything for granted with this team.
They can't do that
Tye conditions are signed already
In all probability, there is already some gardening leave in Newey's contract terms. He's terminating a contract early. There was speculation that RB would be willing to waive that in lieu of some compensation. This was all when Newey was rumoured to be going to Ferrari.

Duo Stroll Sr. and Newey.. I wonder how patient will Stroll Sr. be if Newey and his hiring doesn't deliver.

I didn't read the whole article, but he is right, Newey won't be enough. They desperately need their wind tunnel and manufacturing plant to be operational.

That's just the first hurdle. They can't keep doing wind tunnel runs only on weekends. And worse, at another factory.

Since McLaren finished their wind tunnel upgrade there has been a noticeable difference in the quality of the upgrades, that work immediately. The savings in time and logistics must be immense, and also means they can use their full WT allowance.

Very brave prediction after several reliable sources (including Motorsport network) confirmed it already... :lol:

He has been surprisingly patient with Fallows and Krack in my opinion.

This may be a plan for AMR while they brought Fallows... First Fallows and followed by Newly.....

Previously someone had mentioned an Alonso quote from an article which apparently said that Aston would not bring any more parts this year, but I believe that was a wrong translation. The actual Alonso quote from Motorsport.com is this:
"Not good enough in Monza. Not good in Zandvoort, in Spa, in Hungary. So I don't think there's going to be a big change in Baku, Singapore or Austin unless we bring new parts. That's the plan."
https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/alon ... ock-anchor

So there should be, unless they change that plan :)
