Formula 1 has produced an unprecedented amount of breaking news in 2024 and we haven’t even begun racing yet. We’ve covered a lot of incidents so far, but currently, everyone is talking about Christian Horner‘s ‘inappropriate behavior’ accusations. This news has created shockwaves in the F1 world with repercussions imminent. One such repercussion would be the retirement of Adrian Newey, or at least that’s what Peter Windsor believes.

Red Bull is currently investigating the allegations against Horner and will deliver a verdict on Friday. However, if the verdict is against Horner, who along with his wife denied all claims of any wrongdoing, the ex-Ferrari boss believes we will see the end of Adrian Newey’s career in Formula 1. He expressed this opinion in his latest live chat on YouTube when asked to comment on the matter.

“I wonder then about the future of the team. I certainly wonder about Adrian Newey and what he would do. I think he’s probably of an age where he would just retire. Maybe do the hypercar thing,” said Windsor.

He added, “I think he probably would retire because I think he would see it as finally the end of that era when he had Christian as sort of the buffer and really easy to get on with guy with whom he’s on the same wavelength between Adrian and what he wanted from Red Bull.”

Windsor concluded by saying, “If Christian departs it’ll obviously be bad for Christian but I think the bigger effect will be what effect it has on Adrian’s future.”

Windsor believes Horner’s expulsion will result in Newey’s retirement, and he isn’t the only one. However, a recent report suggested the complete opposite.

A lot of entities are predicting Newey to vacate his post if the Friday verdict does not go in favor of Christian Horner. Everyone believes Newey’s long history with Horner will play a part and the British genius will leave Red Bull. However, recent rumors suggested that Newey has broken all ties with the boss and he has pledged his loyalty to the team.

The report suggested Newey pledged his loyalty to the team and expressed his desire to continue. Additionally, there is speculation that Red Bull’s Technical Director has broken his friendship with Horner while he is being investigated by the Austrian company.
