EThe signing of Adrian Newey by Aston Martin is the news of the Formula 1 season. Yesterday, DA, Lawrence Stroll present to the last piece of his project His ultimate goal is to reach the top of the Great Circus. At the presentation event, Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll confirmed the illusion they have with the arrival of the engineer, but they are not the only ones who are delighted with this announcement. Pedro de la Rosa, the ambassador of the British team, said that everyone in the team is excited and analyzed this move.
Last year, The Spaniard arrived at the Silverstone-based team and confirmed that this signing represents a before and after. Last year they signed a great season, and this season they are facing more complications that’s why they are counting the days until the time when the Briton joins. This will be in March 2025, and enter as a contributor and artistic director.
Historical signature
The former pilot, now combining his work in Formula 1 with his participation in DAZN, on several occasions was asked about this topic and did not say anything. Now, he admitted that he knows something, but not much: “we knew that they were trying to bring him into the team, but today was good news. This is very important news for the history of Aston Martin Formula 1, and it is very important. That means before and after“.
This is not the first time that he coincides with the genius of aerodynamics, since they have already worked together at McLaren. De la Rosa knows what he can contribute to the Formula 1 team: “I worked with Niue for 2 or 3 years when I joined McLaren, he was a very inexperienced driver and when they put him next to you he imposes. What always impresses me the most about him is his ability to listen, he is not a talking person, he listens more than he talks. Listen take notes and at the next meeting come to you with solutions“. Now, they both come at very different times in their careers.
Election of Niue
Since he announced his departure from Red Bull, many teams have taken an interest in taking over the services of the award-winning designer. But, he has finally picked the Silverstone-based team ahead of the rest, and the chancellor is pulling his chest out: “We were able to give the best and that’s because he thinks the team is ready for him. Not all teams are ready to incorporate a character like Adrian Newey”.
At the press conference, the new signing highlighted the importance of Lawrence Stroll for him to wear green in the coming years. “Lawrence Stroll is a person with tremendous ambition, he has a very futuristic vision about Formula 1 and his team. He’s in Formula 1 to win, he always says that. The fact that Fernando is already ready for: a world champion leaves me and I react immediately to sign another,” de la Rosa commented on the work of the Canadian on his head.
Aston Martin is in full growth and this signature is the piece that completes its organizational chart. I could have chosen another place like Ferrari, but the Spanish explains the choice: “The project seduced him and in Formula 1 you can only be seduced by a project if it is a winner. The wind tunnel is already at the final stage to be completed, the new simulator opens in the coming months, the factory has already been finished… Niue it’s not too late, we have time for this duo to make a future in Formula 1“
