After Adrian Newey starts working for the Aston Martin Racing team, a motorcyclist known and loved for the "magician", Honda, will also arrive for a year.
The head of Honda Racing Corporation believes that Adrian Newey's involvement with Aston Martin means that together they will build the best car on the grid. Koji Watanabe said that with Newey's arrival they can repeat or even surpass the achievements of Red Bull Racing, which would make them the best team in the world.
"It's very inspiring to see that Aston Martin is constantly working to move forward as a team. It's really gratifying to see so much investment in infrastructure and people, such as the construction of a modern wind tunnel and HQ, or the signing of Adrian Newey. We know Adrian, we've worked together before, and he's driven by an incredible passion, he wants to build fast cars. While they'll be working on the body, we'll be working on the engine, there will definitely be friction, we have to be prepared for that. But if we overcome and resolve these obstacles, we will build the best car in the world. And if that happens, we will be the best team in the world!"
