Great news if you are an Alonso fan. . . restructuring just before huge regulation changes. Additionally, Seidl would be bad news also. . . I don't think he's particularly keen about Alonso

Hmmm, Team still not settled.
After last newey video I thought they are settled and just need to gel together now.

I was not that bothered by the sackings from the Aero department as they were pre Newey hires and thats his area of expertise. Fact they are firing Cowell basically 10 months after making him team principal suggests that things may not be on the right path given that his expected role in PU development.

Well we officially 8th in the standings. We gonna end up behind the saubers too

[Nikosar]

Newey did the same after he arrived at RB way back when

[Kamel]

Horner or Seidl?

[draghixa]

Considering Newey right now as part owner of the team and all the rumors between Newey and Cowell, they don't really need a TP, may be get Alonso to this position after next season.

Yeah very likely at this point.

I don't think he was involved in the development of the PU with Honda

Why do you think that?

[TyreSlip]

Cowell left because he felt he was being undermined by Newey? This team is such a shitshow.

I am sickened that Alonso's alleged last year is going to be spent with a team in political turmoil.

[Xyz22]

Is Cowell absolutely insane? Why did he go against Adrian plan for the technical area?
That part of the company has be to be managed entirely by Newey. He has always operated like that.

[Rikrikrik]

Well. We know how will be our perfomance next year. A complete disaster. When Alonso will be retired, AM will be champion. This guy has a huge karma.
