The race is on for the most coveted signature in F1...

The race is on to sign Adrian Newey after it was announced that the F1 design genius will leave Red Bull

Yet it is plain that the Williams team of today is unrecognisable in pretty much every respect – except, Vowles readily admits, some of the facilities at Grove, which remain pre-historic – from the team Newey used to know in the days of Sir Frank Williams and Sir Patrick Head. Are Mercedes prepared to take the tough decisions and do whatever it takes to return to their title-winning peak?

In many ways, McLaren too are unrecognisable from the team Newey left behind – but in this case, given the disdain he held for Ron Dennis by the end of his previous spell, that is not such a bad thing.The word on the street is that Lawrence Stroll, the Aston Martin owner, made a lucrative offer to Newey during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend in March.

When Newey’s departure from Red Bull was confirmed, many pointed to the fact that last November he commissioned the production of a yacht with the intention of sailing around the world. Retirement might start off as an appealing prospect, but a brain as magnificent as that just isn’t built to sit idle for very long.Lewis Hamilton’s move to Ferrari was the type of bombshell that can make a grown man pause for a moment to question his own life choices.
