Adrian Newey has admitted he is “flattered” by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton’s comments about working with him at Ferrari in the future, but stressed he is going to “take a bit of a bre൲ak”.

It was confirmed ahead of this weekend’s Miami Grand Prix that Newey, considered F1’s greatest-ever designer, will leave the ♛team after nearly two decades. 

Newey can start w🥃ork for another team as soon as he leaves Red Bull in early 2025 and has been heavily linked with a switch to Ferrari.

On 🍎Thursday, seven-time world champion Hamilton, who is moving to Ferrari next year, said it would be a “privilege to work with” the legendary car designer.

“It’s very kind of Lewis to say that, I’m very flattered,” Newey told Sky as he✨ refused to completely rule out a move to Ferrari in the future.

“But at the moment it’꧅s just take a little bit of a break and see what happens next.”

Asked why he had decided now was the time to l🦂eave Red Bull, the 65-year-old replied: “Formula 1 is all-consuming. I’ve bee༺n at it for a long time now.

“2021 was a really busy year because of the tight battle with Mercedes through the championship and at the same time, putting all the research and development into the [RB]18, whicℱh was the father of this generation of cars.

“There comes a point I think where I just felt, as For💯est Gump said, I’m feeling a little bit tire💙d.”

Newey said he had been mulling the decision for a “little while”♛ and added he is now looking forward to taking “a bit of a break” from F1.

“I guess over the winter a little bit and th𝔉en as events have unfolded this year I thought I’m in a very lucky position where I don’t need to work to live, I work because I enjoy it and I just felt that now is a good time to step back and 🎉take a bit of a break and take stock of life,” he said.

“Go travelling a bit. I think my wife and the dogs will probably go travelling. Get a motorhome or something and go through Fr𝔍ance and just enjoy life. And t🍷hen maybe at some point, I don’t know when, I’ll be standing in the shower and go ‘right, this is the next adventure’.”
