Adrian Newey has undoubtedly been one of the greatest contributors to the success of Red Bull Racing’s Formula 1 cars in recent years. Jenson Button, the 2009 world champion, believes that Newey’s departure will be beneficial for the sport, as it will allow other teams to offer some competition. According to Button, the Red Bull car was two and a half seconds faster than any other car, and Adrian was intimately familiar with every single detail of that car.
Appearing on the Sky F1 podcast, Jenson Button said, “If he’s not happy, it’s a shame because Red Bull are in such a good place in terms of performance at the moment.
“But for the sport, it’s probably a good thing if we saw him somewhere else and give another team an opportunity.”
