My F1 blog! Charles, Max, George, Oscar, Logan and Fernando are my grid favorites, but I post about the entire grid. I am a lestappen enjoyer and ship for fun(don't take it too seriously)Luci she/they adult
Hi Luci!! Now that it’s officially confirmed Adrian is leaving, I would love your thoughts on what this actually means for RBR post 2025 and going into 2026? —🍊
I mean it's really hard to say. They have other engineers and are probably going to have to hire a few new people as well. There really isn't replacing Newey.
This does indicate to me that RBR have triggered a sort of "brain drain" event with the negative problems behind the scenes. They are going to keep losing people and whenever that happens in a team it usually means a severe drop off.
It's not just Newey, this is a symptom of a larger problem with the team that will very likely weaken it going into 2026.
2025 is already done basically. Newey has already designed that car and will work on possible upgrades until he leaves.
The problem is I am not seeing how the team is going to attract top talent with the situations they are currently in.
I came to the conclusion that formula one is mostly about star crossed lovers who are also scar crossed lovers seeking mutual destruction because they would only allow themselves a gentle touch of another man if it's in the safety of a shared podium.
Coming to Netflix this summer, Veganism to Survive
Formula 1 and 2 drivers, as well as Formula Academy drivers, will be grouped up randomly and tasked with cooking vegan meals up to Kevin Magnussen and Lewis Hamilton's tastes as they're both vegan. They'll have to overcome challenges and compete against their fellow drivers for the chance to win the grand prize.
Anyways props to @oxygenpdf for engaging in this silly little joke idea with me 🥰
