Adrian Newey, the Chief Technical Officer of Red Bull Racing, may be leaving the team, according to former Ferrari Formula 1 engineer Ernest Knoors. Knoors believes that if Newey departs, it could lead to a mass exodus of other technical figures from Red Bull. Knoors draws parallels to his own experience at Ferrari when Michael Schumacher’s era ended and Ross Brawn left. He explains that when a prominent figure leaves, it creates uncertainty and makes people more open to offers from other teams. Reports suggest that Newey has been less involved recently, with Red Bull Technical Director Pierre Wache taking the lead. However, Knoors argues that the influence of Wache doesn’t matter much in the context of Newey’s potential departure. The stability of the team is crucial, and if Red Bull fails to achieve that, more exits could occur. Knoors also questions the role of Team Principal Christian Horner and whether he can effectively retain talented individuals within the team.
