Newey to join Red Bull at Jerez
Red Bull Racing's new chief technical officer Adrian Newey is planning to join the team's test at Jerez in Spain this week
The former McLaren technical director, who joined Red Bull Racing today, is keen to get an understanding of how the team operates as quickly as possible.
"I'm going down to Jerez tomorrow to spend some time with the team and to see the new car," said Newey from Red Bull Racing's Milton Keynes factory.
"It'll be nice to escape England in January and to be back at a race track again. I'm also looking forward to hearing the sound of these new V8 engines for the first time.
"I expect to spend my initial period with the team observing how things are done here, getting to know people and finding my feet in this new environment. The technical team is very strong and has a good reputation, so my aim at the start will simply be to understand how Red Bull Racing operates."
Red Bull Racing's RB2 will have its first major test at Jerez in Spain following a shakedown at Silverstone in December.
