Any rival F1 team hoping to hire Red Bull design guru Adrian Newey may have to wait until 2027.
Contractual non-complete clauses could see Adrian Newey blocked from joining any of Red Bull’s, who report Newey could be unavailable for an additional 12 months following the end of his contract, which is due to expire at the end of 2025.
Germany’s Auto Motor und Sport, who first reported the news, claim Newey is most likely to join Ferrari and could make the move to Maranello as soon as 2025.Contractual non-complete clauses are often inserted into the contracts of senior F1 figures to prevent rivals poaching them easily. However, this does not necessarily prevent the possibility of Newey being fast-tracked to another team.
Given Red Bull would not want to hand a potential early advantage to a rival outfit, such a deal would likely come at a lofty cost.
