Angela Cullen appears to still have Lewis Hamilton on her mind after they went their separate ways.
Lewis Hamilton and Angela Cullen worked together at Mercedes for seven years
Angela Cullen sent Lewis Hamilton a clear message as she swapped motorsport for the ski slope. The 50-year-old worked with the F1 star for seven years during his time with Mercedes, before the duo went their separate ways at the start of 2023.
Hamilton followed Cullen through the Silver Arrows exit door at the end of last season after winning six of his seven world titles with the team.
Adrian Newey will officially begin his role as managing technical partner at Aston Martin on March 3. Ahead of his arrival, the former Red Bull CTO has revealed his first “target” at the Silverstone-based squad whilst tempering expectations for an immediate performance boost, stating: “What will be, will be.”
Newey announced his surprising exit from Red Bull ahead of the 2024 Miami Grand Prix ending almost two decades of work with the team. At the time, Newey explained:
“Ever since I was a young boy, I wanted to be a designer of fast cars. My dream was to be an engineer in Formula One, and I’ve been lucky enough to make that dream a reality. For almost two decades it has been my great honour to have played a key role in Red Bull Racing’s progress from upstart newcomer to multiple title-winning Team.
“However, I feel now is an opportune moment to hand that baton over to others and to seek new challenges for myself. In the interim, the final stages of development of RB17 are upon us, so for the remainder of my time with the Team my focus will lie there. I would like to thank the many amazing people I have worked with at Red Bull in our journey over the last 18 years for their talent, dedication and hard work.”
In September 2024, Aston Martin officially confirmed Newey’s arrival, signing the legendary aerodynamicist on a long-term contract as managing technical partner.
During an appearance on the BBC F1: Back at Base podcast, Newey revealed what his first priorities would be upon joining the team. He explained:
“I’m just looking forward to it and what will be, will be.
“The first target really is to get to know everybody here, understand how everybody works, and try to integrate myself with everybody.
