Newey will work with the team’s drivers, Stroll’s 25-year-old son, Lance, and two-time world champion Fernando Alonso, 43.

Newey is widely regarded as one of the greatest engineers and designers in Formula 1 history, with his designed cars having lifted twelve World Constructors’ Championships and thirteen World Driver Championships, starting from Nigel Mansell’s Williams in 1992 to Max Verstappen’s Red Bull in 2023. The tally could increase further if Verstappen or Red Bull win their respective titles in 2026

Red Bull had announced Newey’s departure from the team in May 2024 after a 19-year connection, during which he has overseen title-winning cars for Sebastian Vettel and Verstappen.
