Adrian Newey: Mind over matter
Adrian Newey has always loved a good regulation shake-up, and in 2009 he has justified Red Bull Racing's faith in him. Adam Cooper talks exclusively to the man responsible for the fastest F1 car on the grid.
Adrian Newey missed Sebastian Vettel's win for Toro Rosso in Monza last year, and he was absent too when the German triumphed in the wet in Shanghai in April. But at Silverstone he was finally able to see a dark blue car cross the line first as Vettel and Mark Webber recorded a fabulous one-two, just down the road from the Red Bull Racing factory.
Newey has been involved in a lot of grands prix wins over the years, and there have been many at his home track. But this one was important, he admitted, and the emotion was clear to see.
