The problem is that with the current budget limit, we have to decide how much to invest to improve the current situation without affecting the performance of the 2024 car. We have to be patient. We need people with different experiences. When we look at history, when we have made changes to the organization and taken employees from other teams, the results have been very visible. We are good at some things, but for others we need outside experts “, he admitted in the statement given by Nextgen-Auto.

“Adrian Newey told us no”

” Today Red Bull wins with hybrid engines, but in the past the team won with conventional engines. Sebastian Vettel won the world championship with them four times and it was certainly no accident. Adrian Newey told us no. He had already refused to Luca di Montezemolo and Jean Todt. It seems he doesn’t want to move – he likes to stay in England. And besides, his undoubted skills aside, he’s not doing this alone. He also has very good people around him “, found Piero Ferrari. Another refusal to Ferrari.
