Legendary F1 designer Adrian Newey drops bombshell revelation about missed opportunity with Lewis Hamilton

In a shocking turn of events, renowned Formula 1 guru Adrian Newey has spilled the beans on a missed chance to collaborate with seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton. Newey, a mastermind in F1 design, recently graced the Monaco Grand Prix paddock in Aston Martin colors, marking his debut with the team after departing from Red Bull, where he left a lasting legacy with 12 constructors’ championships under his belt.

Speculations were rife about Newey potentially teaming up with Hamilton following the latter’s move to Ferrari. However, the veteran designer opted for Aston Martin, bagging the role of managing technical partner along with a hefty £30 million annual paycheck and team shares. Despite his new venture, Newey confessed his regret over never having the chance to collaborate with Hamilton until now.

Speaking candidly to Sky Sports F1, Newey expressed, “Fernando [Alonso], I mean, crikey – what a legend. Always the kind of two regrets of my recent career, if you like, not going back a long way, have been that I haven’t had the opportunity to work with either Lewis [Hamilton] or Fernando. So I’ve now got the opportunity to put one of those right.”

Newey’s presence at the 2025 Monaco GP not only showcased his integration into Aston Martin but also hinted at his involvement in shaping the team’s 2026 car project. While praising Aston Martin’s cutting-edge wind tunnel and impressive Silverstone factory, Newey pointed out that improvements were needed in the simulator as the on-track results were not aligning as expected.

Aston Martin, despite boasting the talents of seasoned driver Fernando Alonso, has been grappling with a lackluster 2025 season, barely clinging onto P8 in the constructors’ championship and struggling to secure consistent points finishes. Alonso, in particular, has been plagued by misfortunes, enduring setbacks like power failures that have hampered his race weekends, mirroring his tumultuous stint with McLaren in 2015.

As the F1 season unfolds, Newey’s revelations have stirred the motorsport community, shedding light on what could have been a groundbreaking partnership between two titans of the sport. Fans are left wondering about the untapped potential and the electrifying dynamics that a Newey-Hamilton collaboration could have brought to the track.
