Newey to make trackside debut with Aston Martin at Monaco GP
Adrian Newey will attend the Monaco Grand Prix this weekend, his first with Aston Martin.
This marks the beginning of his trackside role with the team, following his move from Red Bull earlier this season.
Why it matters: After nearly two decades at Red Bull, where he contributed to multiple championships, Newey joined Aston Martin to focus on their 2026 car project, especially given the upcoming regulation changes.
The big picture: While the AMR25 has faced challenges this season, the team has emphasized Newey's primary focus has been on the future.
What's next: His first race weekend appearance with Aston Martin follows the team's recent upgrade package at Imola, which showed improved single-lap performance. Despite improved qualifying results at Imola (Alonso P5, Stroll P8), the team struggled in the race. Fernando Alonso finished P11, just outside the points, while Lance Stroll has accumulated 14 points this year, placing Aston Martin seventh in the constructors' standings.
