Max Verstappen has been grilled about following Adrian ꧒Newey to Aston Martin.

Newey’s move from Red Bull means the greatest car designer in F1 history will take on a new project ꦦfཧrom next season.

Newey will become Managing Technical Partner and shareholder at Aston Martin but, crucially, will be ab🧸le to i♋nfluence their 2026 car.

Aston Martin’s hope is that Newey ca📖n launch a dominant era when the new engine regulations begin.

Red Bull have been forced to deny🍌 that🐲 their current difficulties are linked to Newey announcing his exit.

"It's very difficult, people always talk abཧout🐷 it,” Verstappen said to .

“I prefer to look to the future because we can always talk about it and we can try to think about what will be different♕.

“But it won't change ou꧟r situation and it's important to look ahead to learn how to become stronger and better."

It has been suggested that the next piec🍸e of the puzzle for Aston Martin is to recruit F1’s top driver.

It would mean Verstappe🤡n would drive a Newey-designed car once again.

"People talk about these things a lot more than I do,” he said about moving to🎀 Aston Martin in 2026.

“I'm very reꩵlaxed, I just think about driving and trying to understand my problems and improve.

“Then I go home and live my life. 🍌I'm pretty calm about the future.

“It's very simple for me, I like what I do and as long as I enjoy it I'll stay here and I'll continue to drive in F1 too. 
“If I want to go elsewhere, I will go elsewhere.

“It's not in my mind at the moment."
