Eddie Jordan has responded to the suggestio⛦n that Adrian Newey’s route into Ferrari has shut.

F1 stalwart Jordan surpr⛦isingly emerged as the manager of Newey, when his next destination became the source of intrigue.

Newey will leave his job as chief technical officer at Red Bull in the early p༺art of next year, creating a buzz about which team could benefit from his expertise next.

“Do you think they are missing Newey? For obvious reasons, I am not going to answer that,” Jordan 𒆙said on his Formula For Success podcast.

David Coulthard responded: “I don’t think the more competitive field is down to Adrian say🦩ing, a few races ago, that next year he will leave the team.

“It’s ridiculous to imagine. It’s not a share price. When the founder of Apple died the share price dropp♊ed even though they had an incredible stream of products that had just been launched.

“The stock💞 market is a lot about emotion. Race car performance is about what you’ve delivered, what you’ve physically manufactured.

“The idea that Adrian has decided his long-term future isn’t with Red Bull is as fanciful as when you eventually get off the fence, and reveal where you’ve been able to barter t𝐆he best deal!

“We are waiting for the announcement.

“When you eventually announce he’s going to Aston Martin, do we suddenly think their performance will gain half-a-second just because of an an🥀nouncement?

“Of course not. He’s got to then start the long journey of getting to know the team of people, getting to know the 🍸facilities, bringing his vision forward.

“That can taꦐke years. It took five or four years ཧat Red Bull for that success to come.”

Jordan responded to the claim about Aston Ma🐷rtin: “You have made a statement about where you think Adrian may or may not be going.

“I would say to you: one, I c�♏�annot believe that what you said is currently in a situation where you can justifiably call it a fact.”

Coulthard said: “W🍃ell, he’s not going to Ferrari.”

Jordan: “Why do you say that? I need to know.”

Coulthard: “Because a very senior☂ source has said no. He’s not going to McLaren unless it’s linked to road cars.

“Why would you bring Adrian into something that is working now? McLaren have found a trend of development.ꦿ”

Jꦚordan: “What you’ve just said is extremely fanciful. If you remember the things I’ve come out with, and Ad🦋rian has come out with…

“It’s st𓆉ill in the melting pot. What you’ve just said is inaccurate and fancif🍌ul.”

Coulthard asked: “Where is he going then?”

Jordan answered: “Why am I going to tell you? I have to tell you that the reasoꦰn why no-one will know is: it’s the summer period, he went to Goodwood with the RB17, he’s still working with Red Bull.

“There’s an 𒁏argument to say Red Bull should app♍roach him and ask if he’d come back again! But I think it’s far too late.

“The reality is that Adrian is spending downtime. He has spent every year of his life, night and day, since 19. He’s now mid-60s. He is having fun, his daughter got mar𓂃ried, he’s doing other things that he’s never been able to do before.”

Ferrari denied to ltxcn.top a recent suggestion from Italian media that 💫they were involved in a ne꧑gotiation with Newey which ended due to his salary request.

His abili🍌ty to starဣt work at a new team next year will give him enough time to impact their 2026 car.

Newey’s future employers will, thℱerefore, dream that he can provide them with the impe⛎tus to lead from the front when the new F1 regulations begin.
