Aston Martin welcomes Newey on his first day at work

      Aston Martin F1 welcomed Adrian Newey on his first day with the team, sharing a photo of his office at the new base in Silverstone on social media the night before.

      We wrote that the "genius of aerodynamics", as Newey is often called in Formula 1, takes up his duties on March 3, and yesterday's publication by Aston Martin can be considered the last official confirmation of this important event.

      The comment to the picture was extremely short: "See you tomorrow, Adrian!"

      A special detail attracts attention in the right part of the image, where we see a classic drawing board with a drawing board, since it is known that Newey is a traditionalist in this regard and uses such "analog" tools in his work. And only then the team of his numerous colleagues and assistants translates the ideas of the famous designer "into numbers".

      The future will show how successful his collaboration with Aston Martin will be, because the complexity of the tasks facing Newey should not be underestimated. However, when he joined Red Bull Racing almost two decades ago, the situation was somewhat similar, but in 2010 the young team won the Constructors' Cup, and Sebastian Vettel won his first title.

      Lawrence Stroll sets the most ambitious goals for Aston Martin, and, of course, Newey has a crucial role to play in achieving them. However, he refrains from making any predictions, only philosophically remarking: "Now I'm just looking forward to all this, and then how things will go, so they will go."
