Brandle believes that Whitley will move to Aston Martin.

      Former Formula 1 driver and commentator for British Sky Sports Martin Brundle commented on Jonathan Wheatley's resignation as team principal of Audi and his possible move to Aston Martin.

      "In Aston Martin, the leadership is constantly changing, isn't it? And, it seems to me, they make quite strange decisions about who does what and who is in charge," Martin Brundle shared his opinion on the F1 Show. "Honestly, it's very curious to just watch this, being familiar with some of the participants in the events.

      I assume that Jonathan Wheatley will move to Aston Martin. He is my friend, but he doesn't want to talk about it yet. I'm sure he is just not allowed to.

      I don't think he would lightly turn down the project at Audi, the move of his family to Switzerland, and everything else. So let's assume that after the negotiations, mandatory vacation, or something like that, he will end up at Aston Martin.

      Adrian Newey knows him very well from their time together at Red Bull. I think Jonathan's pragmatism and practical approach would help the team, so his invitation would be a sensible step. Honestly, I didn't expect this from Jonathan, although I was told twice in Melbourne that it would happen.

      He could be a great acquisition for Aston Martin, but they need to calm down and focus on one thing. Right now, they look like a Premier League football club that is constantly changing coaches. But then what?

      Everyone in the team is just hiding and keeping their heads down because they don't know what will happen next, who will be their leader, what the strategy is, and so on. So this is really a tough situation for everyone at Aston Martin."
