Red Bull’s advisor Dr Helmut Marko says Adrian Newey’s departure is “a big loss”, and adds whenever a big regulations change came “it was usually Adrian who was the first to understand it optimally”.
Reactions to Adrian Newey’s departure from Red Bull keep pouring in. Ahead of the Miami Grand Prix, Red Bull’s advisor Dr Helmut Marko gave his thoughts on how this development will impact the team.
“This is of course a big loss for Red Bull Racing,” the Austrian told Kronen Zeitung.
“He may not have always been involved in the day-to-day running, he may not have paid attention to every detail, every screw, but he was the one who controlled the complex knowledge of aerodynamics and mechanical grip of the whole car.

“Moreover, his great successes have made him a legend.”
Marko highlighted the biggest loss will be felt when the team starts preparing for the big 2026 regulations change.
“We have built up a young engineering team in recent years, so we are very well positioned, but of course in 2026 there will be new regulations.
“Whenever such regulations came in the past, it was usually Adrian who was the first to understand it optimally,” he concluded.
