The experienced Brit🐠ish driver was the first big name to drive for Red Bull in 2005 but the team had a very different attitude in those days.

It was Coulthard that tempted Adrian Newey across to become the chief technical officer and Red Bull’s masterm💃ind, de♓spite their reputation for partying and late nights.

"David's a good friend, somebody whose judgement I very much trusted, and David gave it a big thumbs-up," Newey sꦉays.

"[Red Bull] were always hav🌸ing big d🔥iscos – was this a team that would be taken seriously? 

“But if you went beneath that veneer, then to me it looked like, yes, it had all the 🐼building blocks."

Team principal Christian Horner had targeted F1 paddock legend Newey as the 𝔍key addition who could propel them towards winning championships.

"Christian made a habit through the 2005 season that I would be walking into the paddock, I think Silverstone has the clearest memory, he always happened to be walking,” Newey🐽 revealed.

“There was ano𒊎ther chance interchange and we started to talk a bit more.

"And then this gentleman in a black leather jacket suddenly popped out from behind a truck and sa🌜id, 'I'm Helmut Marko, here is my card. We will ring'."

Newey has since aided Red Bull towards five constructors’ championships - fouꦑr before Mercedes took over with eight in a row, then one this year.
