Adrian Newey is the most successful designer in F1 history - and among the best DESIGNERS in the world. Having drawn up some of the most dominant cars in history.
Today’s fans will know him from Red Bull success, but he has won over the 13 world championships. With teams like Williams and McLaren. Over those years, the signature ‘Newey design style’ runs through - even up to this year’s DOMINANT Red Bull.
Look at this. At the front nose of the dominant RB18 from 2022 - and the chassis has a distinctive V-shape around the drivers feet.

the FIA gave red bull 63% wind tunnel time, but forgot that newey has one in his head
Well said!
"Bloke can see air" 😂
I mean, he also had an amazing design last year, so why would he change it?
@@giovannieusebi955make it even better 😼
@@Immortal_sm I mean, it was a flawless design, so all they had to do is weight saving and suspension, and literally everything, except for areo
As Martin Brundle said in spain: Whatever the top F1 drivers are paid, Adrian deserves at least that too. The man is an absolute genius
He's reported to be on $25 million, which is more than 80% of the grid
@@sinfinate9433 Most of the drivers would drive for free to be in a Newey car. So, it’s still a bargain, especially when you consider money produce by the points and sponsorship attracted from winning the WCC / WDC is worth hundreds of millions. That doesn’t include the value he keeps adding to the team/organization itself. Imagine what Stroll would being willing to pay for a turn key championship team. lol
@@The_ZeroLine If Ferrari couldn't buy Newey into the team, i doubt that Aston Martin could do it ^^''
like literally the offer Newey had from Ferrari, was pretty much meant to be one that can't be refused.
@@Cynderfan35 I didn’t say they could and Ferrari is the LAST team Newey would ever sign for. RBR understood him as a person and have given the perfect work/life balance (allowing him to step away when he’s burnt out or bored with F1) as well as equity in the team and the power to not be overruled by business execs outside the team. He knows what a cluster f Ferrari is, how they’d expect him to be there 24/7, how they’d interfere endlessly, etc.
Stroll probably did offer him some insane amount if given the chance. So, $25m is nothing.
@@Cynderfan35 BTW, my point about Stroll was that $25m is nothing when you consider how much Stroll would be willing to pay him or a team he was committed to. Newey is more valuable than even having Max + Alonso driving as drivers can win in a decently competitive car, but they can’t design one.
Newey is the best! Staying relevant for over four decades in F1 and creating winning cars in (nearly) every era is simply astonishing. Not even Chapman could do that.
He wanted to retire to spend time raising his kids.
Chapman could actually go longer. If he didn't passed away so soon
@@hectornecromancer5308 He passed away?
@@anmihovil 40+ years ago 😢
@@anmihovil yeah. Around 1982
"The only bloke that can see Air" tremendous quote by Horner pretty much sums up Adrian Newey genius
Winning 13 world championships is crazy, bro is simply built different
I see what you did there
He has been designing since 1989 though… that’s 34 years. That’s only 38% of the time. So who were the unsung designers for the other 62% of this time period? Also, he has made many many duds. Just ask McLaren.
@@mrorangepeel659 Only 38% of the time he is the world champion car designer lol. That ”only” transfered into 13 championships lol. What a crazy comment you made.
@@mrorangepeel659 You're gonna be that "one", huh?? 🙄
He builds different
He's an absolute genius.
As a diehard fan of Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, Newey and Horner are UNSTOPPABLE!
Bro even improved his own aerodynamic package by going with a low drag hairstyle. Truly an inspiration.
😂😂😂 nah bro
Hair on the rear and sidepods.
He has internalized the way of aerodynamics
😂😂😂 totally sharing this with my engineering buddies
"Red: You see this? You see that? There's no hair under here, bro.
Dale: What's the significance of that?
Red: It makes me aerodynamic when I fight."
Honestly after reading his book I learned to appreciate all the aero work in the car, also really recommend the book
The Newey books are all legendary man.
name of the book?
@@XBullitt16X How to build a Car.
@@XBullitt16X How To Build A Car, full reccomdndation
Yes I’m in 1997 in the book now, it’s funny, an adventure book, biography and technical book in 1 👍
i’ve gotten nothing but respect for Adrian. Wow is this man a genius.
Yep. A true genius designer.
@@purwantiallan5089 No other man in motorsport can visualize airflow
Dale Sr could.
Read his book if you haven't (most of this vid is taken from it - nice to have the footage to go alongside it though).
still I wonder if people ever looked at it the other way around: instead of Newey making the cars that made his drivers champions, maybe he had some insane drivers driving his creations (Mansell, Prost, Vettel, Verstappen, Hakkinen) which led to his cars winning? I'm not saying it is per se the case, but for instance in 2021 had it been anyone but Max in that car there would be no WDC for RB. Even 2022 if RB had a slightly worse driver and Ferrari hadn't been as stupid they wouldn't have won WDC.
I'm not saying this is the case or that I think it is, but it's something we should consider at least!
Over a dozen F1 Championships, 2 Cart titles and 3 indy 500 winning cars....
Yup, sure knows how to build a racing car.
Yep. And also legendary X2010 and X2014 Fan cars.
Indy 500 demands are different from any other oval or race. It used to be back in the day, pre 90s, people would build a car or engine specifically just for Indy 500 because the rules for that race were slightly different than the rest of the series.
@Real28 only thing that really changed was that the engines are spec through the season. Now the aero is very different, there's been a huge understanding of drag now so instead of high hp(hope it lasts) engines they are less stressed and they know they can last the distance. While the more hp was more interesting because they could always blow up, it wasn't truly as interesting as a show of driver skill
Aston Martin Valkyrie as side project too
Newey is the one guy every single team would throw huge amounts of money at. Red Bull is so fortunate to have him.
if driver61 was my teacher at school i would have been SOO good at it
Didn’t know the TH-cam admin was a f1 fan. 😂
How in hell
TH-cam is an F1 fan. Nice
It's kinda nice seeing tributes like this for someone who's still actually alive and well and truly kicking, rather than leaving it until after they pass before properly respecting their accomplishments
The undisputed GOAT of racecar design. We all see how good the current RB car is but even when they were in the Renault years Newey had them competitive through superior aero. There have been plenty of great designers over the years but I cannot think of anyone who revolutionized openwheel racecar design over as many eras and disciplines as Newey. He has been winning for nearly as long as the entirety of the current F1 grid has been alive too which is legendary on its own.
As much as I would love to learn and understand how Newey's mind works, I'm much more intrigued with how he leads and manages the creativity of a technical team because -- at the end of the day -- building a race car is never a one-man job.
Exactly
this is pretty much it, a lot of praise for the man, but the designs are not his alone, his experience is what helps him and Horner manage RB designers to design the best car, and this is where I think Allison has the edge, Adrian might be more technical and knowledgeable, but Allison being an excellent leader and a people person puts him on top.
Tell that to the Mercedes idiots
@@ChuyR.I completely agree
But the original design is and he says he draws the car out completely with pencil and paper.
I’m not even a red bull fan but he is F1’s Da Vinci.
The man is a genius.
Why do you associate redbull with him?
@@GameOver-nm2us emphesis lays on fan. He actually amplifies his complimentation or so in his way. Cheers. Very sportsmanship example like. Actually cool. You'd make the rarest Mercedes fan out there. . . . . :P
@@SB-jc7wz I don't know if that was an insult, a joke, a compliment, or just a poorly structured sentence. Anyway I don't think he should be associated with redbull.
Double DRS on the RedBull would be a very cool video. I know I would appreciate it.
Same!!! 😊
other F1 channels has already did a detailed video about it.
@@Kaimax61 where??
Nobody knows precisely how it works at the moment.
From everyone in F1 through the many (30+) years I've been following it, from drivers to team bosses, I've always been mostly a fan of Adrian. "I mean Adrian is the only bloke who can see air!"
Absolutely brilliant video. Must be one of my all time favourites. You got through so much material in this. Information density massive. Thank you so much for this.
I still remembered Newey ever built up the legendary RED BULL X2010.
Newey in your team is a recipe for success. No wonder Red Bull are flying nowadays. The guy's a genius.
Not always, but with someone like him on your team. The worst car can still able to keep up with the giants
Don't under estimate Horner in this, keeping Newey busy with side projects when the engine is shite so he doesn't leave.
Then why did Mercedes beat him 8 years in a row?
@@LilSebastian_ Renault engine
@@LilSebastian_ Mercedes had a woefully OP Renault engine.
Legend says Adrian Newey can see air moving and can fix any F1 car in a month
It took several months to fix the FW16 of 1994.
Yeah because it had been designed in '93 to run a multitude of driver aids in '94, that were banned, inherently changing the behaviour of the car....
@@bowelrupture a last minute and massive rule change would do that. If a car is designed from the ground up with driver aids in mind, then at the 11th hour the driver aids are banned, you need to start again, which isn't an easy thing in F1 with the lead time of design and testing and manufacture considered.
Mf is fixing Mercedes' zero pods for the meme
Literally the best F1 channel on TH-cam. Leaves WTF1, P1, The Race and many others in its dust.
Very good video. That moving suspesion in garage was awsome. I've heard about so many times but never seeing this.💥💥💥
He even designed a car with polyphony which became the red bull x2010. Using extreme ground effect with a fan like a chaparral 2j or brabham bt46b
Simply put, Newey is focused & brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
The talking bull podcast with Adrian was really interesting a few weeks back, he stated he draws in 2D on paper and he has two designers that upload his drawing into the CFD model, he said CFD only became mainstream in the mid 90s and he couldn't adapt to draw on a computer, Adrians designs have influenced so many different regulations, with his current design philosophy being either copied inspired by 8 other teams on the current grid.
It's not he couldn't adapt to CFD, he just didn't bother learning it
During the Channel 4 coverage of the Barcelona race yesterday, David Coulthard pointed something very interesting out. What with McLaren spending an absolute fortune on a new wind tunnel, it turns out that Red Bull uses one from the 1960s! I doubt that Newey is slightly bothered.
Yes, please do a video on the DRS! It's fascinating!
They are moving to a new facility though (in the future). They have wanted to use a new wind tunnel for years.
I didn't realise you raced in Indy lights. Would be good to have a video of your perception of how Jamie Chadwick is getting on. I kind of expected to see her a lot higher up the grid???
If you saw her career prior to the W series its hardly surprising…
I guess her's is another one of those cases where a driver does great and wins everything and then has a slump as soon as he reaches a higher series. Happens alot in f1. Everyone was hyping up Devries because he was doing pretty good over his career but here he is in f1 being at the back of the field
@@ergoproxy-gx2cq To be fair, this year's Alpha Tauri is a dog of a car
@@MapleShrimp true but he's getting outperformed by yuki by a large margin. I know it's his rookie season but goddman with the hype people gave him you would expect more of him
@@ergoproxy-gx2cq this is another reminder of why nobody should ever buy in to the hype
When the 2022 season brought back ground effect, Newey was like "yeah, I have done that before! know how to do that. need to watch out for porpoising".
All the others were experiencing it only at the first test week...
Such a well made Video, the pace of your story telling and the mix of videos matching what you are talking about, make this video just very good
A living legend. Appreciate them while you can
Yes, make a video about redbulls double DRS. I always hear it talked about, but usually very briefly.
Awesome video thanks for the insight! Loved the research you can clearly see you've put in.
Course we want to know about the double diffuser ! You explain things very well, thank you so much Scott !
I recently finished the Newey's book and was looking for a companion video to see visuals about all Newey's cars, this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks Scott and team. Would love to watch more of those 😀
Really fantastic episode, thanks for putting this together!!
Great video. As other commenters have said, he’s a legend and can name his price. Williams didn’t appreciate him and they have never recovered. Would be good to do a video on his peers in the other teams. Newey is the only designer I know. Maybe the other teams design by committee
Look up Patrick Head, the reason Adrian moved on from Williams. Another next level car designer and engineer.
Thanks for sharing scott
Quality content
His book was incredible. "How to build a car"
Full of old F1 story's and design journey of cars. Wonderful read
Nice one 👍🏻, double DRS video would be awesome
As a Ferrari fan, I have nothing but respect for Adrian Newey. The guy has been at the top of his game for decades! When Ferrari beat McLaren to the title in 2000, that was more than just winning for Ferrari (even though Ferrari had to wait 21 year for another title), we've beaten one of the best designers in F1 history and it was one of Adrian Newey's cars! Though prior to 2000 when Schumi, Brawn, and Ferrari made miracles, winning races that we shouldn't have was just as sweet!
Seeing the 14B actually brings tears to my eyes. Its so. god. damn. beautiful.
Great video, I can not believe I never noticed the similarity in nose design across all of Adrian's cars, now I will never be able to unsee it!
Great video, many thanks for sharing.
Awesome Video! Thank you for your hard work
This was so interesting, thanks Scott!
Excellent video, thanks!
Loved this deep dive Scott. 👍 😃
Well done video. Thanks.😊
saying of the century ( Adrian can see air ) brilliant , what a designer .
fantastic video love to see this type of content
amazing video. thanks!!
Great video as always! ❤🏎👌
My favourite video of yours EVER. LOVE IT
Great video… to think that he was able inspire so much innovation across the field makes me think if F1 can get Newey to design the blueprint for the next regulations. Imagine every team having a Newey concept to start with. It would be beautiful!
Thank you Scott...
Best quote that shows how genius Adrian is : the only man who see air !
Great video, video that I can actually learn something new, thanks.
Brilliant video mate
Thank you for sharing your expert insights, this was a fascinating video to watch!
Newey is a one in a lifetime product....
Happy to have witnessed it.
Yes! We want to hear about that!
Great video!
Amazing video, thank you
I knew he was a smart guy, but after reading his book and the insight he has to chassis setup, ride heights etc, and knowledge of the complete car end to end really makes him an unstoppable force when it comes to designing cars. He doesn't just focus on aerodynamics like others in his role, even swapping the pushrods end to end last year for mechanical AND aerodynamic effect and knowing what both will do to driveability and tire wear plus the aero bonuses
Awesome vid. I’m reading Neweys book ‘How to build a car’ and am at 1997 now in it. Its awesome. Its funny, an adventure, biography, tech book for all to understand, all in one👍 Newey is a visionary genius and a hilariously funny guy as well 🤗
A video about the double DRS System of Red Bull would be very interesting. One of the reasons why red bull is so dominant right now is their high straightline speed and drs effectiveness, so to here about this in a video would be great and interessing.
Newey is just built different with a genius brain for sleek, efficient and effective (and championship winning) designs). I would love to see a video of my favorite team Red Bull’s dominating and masterful double DRS system. Let’s make it happen Scott.
huh, was just binging this channel (again)
cheers for uploading as the last one finished i guess?
I'd love to see longer in-depth tech videos on various cars!
Absolute beast and awesome video. Double DRS next!
Brilliant video. What a legend!
Newey wasn't involved in the FW12 from 89. He started at Williams with the FW14, two years later. Around that time, he was with March/Leyton House, building the aerodynamically most advanced cars on the grid.
Great man!
Amazing video. Amazing car designer. Without a doubt the greatest in F1’s history. Amazing career. I didn’t know he started in Indy 😮
Good Video 👏🏼
Great video again, like them more and more, there are enough real motorsport fans for proper motorsport talk
“and remember these were the cars that sounded a bit weird on corner entries”
proceeds to show most majestic noises
It's really interesting to see how creative Newey has been through the years, impressive.
Also they had so much freedom in the past with active suspension, aero etc. I wonder how fast the cars would be today if they got more freedom. But especially I wonder what innovations they would come up with.
There will never be another newey, his influence on Motorsport is awe inspiring
Newey is a true genius. I will also add that Mercedes shot themselves in the foot - once the 2022 ground effect rules were being agreed and talked about, Newey was working on the ground effect Valkyrie that now bears the Aston Martin name while Mercedes engineers were focusing a lot of time and effort on the Project one which is based on 2016 technology.
The crapjet one??? The car where LH had to bury the foot into the throttle pedal? I would rather prefere a car witch has been slowly broken in.
The man is just on another level. The sheer amount of skill to build championship-winning cars in four different eras of F1 so to speak is absolutely ridiculous.
Rory Byrne was also a good designer - helped Michael Schumacer considerably.
Fascinating video
Pushed engineering to breakup the battery into 4 smaller units for better placement...
Gotta be the GOAT of the team for the team to believe in spending the time and effort to get it done. And well spent it has been. The moment he speaks, everyone stops to listen and ponder
Horner: "Adrian is the only one who can see air". Actually that was first said in the 1940s by Lockheed of Kelly Johnson, future designer of the SR-71 and U2 and many others in the "Skunkworks".
Great vid, more of this please! And it's so good a driver is explaining this. There is a lot of bullshit on TH-cam, but Driver 61 is always on point!
Hats off to Adrian Newey for his incredible contributions to Formula 1!
10:20 Yes please We definitely want a video on this Beast of a Car
The Aston Valkyrie is simply stunning, that design is top notch, taking inspiration and aero parameters from F1, merged with a modern hyper car metrics.. absolute class!
Thank you 😊
Yes to double drs video, please. Love your content.
Fantastic video
That's an amazing insight.
rad video, scott
Maybe not smart of a rb fan to share this notable thing aswell. But Newey even makes fans jump teams, since we also love who's most sensible at a track and with the car. Man those Mika days were awesome. Really resembles the sweet championcombo with Honda today.
Thank you for sharing these secrets. It is without a doubt in my mind that in the next race all teams will have adapted these secrets.
Good video, I would like to see more videos of f1 important engineers
The key line in this vid is "Adrian can see air!" yes absolute genius!
Amazing talent! Beautiful cars! ❤
