Mogli bi imati novu dominantnu ekipu 2026...

- Aston Martin is building a dream team for 2026, and Adrian Newey is the latest addition in a high-profile recruitment spree. Lawrence Stroll, the team owner, has been willing to meet all of Newey's demands, including a substantial salary and the creative freedom he requires. Stroll has left no stone unturned to secure Newey’s services, even keeping his visit to the team’s state-of-the-art factory a secret before announcing the deal.

- Unlike at Red Bull, where Newey had to wait for the team to catch up to his ideas, Aston Martin’s new facilities—including a wind tunnel, simulator, and testing benches—will provide Newey with everything he needs from day one. Stroll is determined to achieve success in Formula 1, famously declaring that he will do so "at any cost."

- In 2026, Aston Martin will benefit from a Honda engine, turning them into a factory team. With partners like Aramco and Valvoline, the team is set to compete at the highest level, supported by one of the most experienced technical lineups in Formula 1.

- In addition to Newey, Aston Martin has hired top talent, including former Mercedes engine boss Andy Cowell, Ferrari’s former technical director Enrico Cardile, and other big names in aerodynamics and development. This all-star team aims to build a winning car for 2026, with Newey offering his input even before officially joining.

- Despite the high salaries, the team is working within the budget cap. It is rumored that Aston Martin may be rewarding top engineers with stock packages, reducing the financial burden on the team and staying within the $160 million cost cap. This creative approach is allowing Aston Martin to gather such an elite group of experts while maintaining financial compliance.
