Adrian Newey says he has joined Aston Martin to help lead them to the Formula 1 World Championship.

Anyone else surprised at the short gardening leave? Him starting in March changes things. I thought he would be out at least until September of 2025,which would hurt his participation in the 2026 design. If, however, he does start in March, he can absolutely be a major part of the redesign and that changes the calculations for who might be a force in 2026.

    Not comparable because not everyone in the UK was going to be paid millions and millions while doing it. Also, that was hyperbole, sorry if it was not explicit.

    I uprooted my family for five years and it was a brilliant experience for everyone. My kid speaks four languages, we learned a bunch of new ways of thinking and living, and expanded ourselves quite a bit. It has tough moments no doubt, but it is worth it, especially for the kids.
