Max Verstappen has been grilled about follဣowing Adrian Newey to Aston Martin.

Newey’s move from Red Bull means the greatest car designer in F1 his𒁏tory will take on a new project from next season.

Newey will become Managing Technical Partner and shareholder at Aston Martin but, crucially, will be a꧟ble t💝o influence their 2026 car.

Aston Martin’🅺s hope is that N🧸ewey can launch a dominant era when the new engine regulations begin.

Red Bull haveﷺ been forced to deny that their current difficulties are linked to Newey ꩲannouncing his exit.

✤"It's very difficult, people always talk about it,” Verstappen said to .

“I prefer to look to the future because we can always talk about it and we can try to thinꦆk about what will be different.

“But it won🍸't change our situation and it's important to look ahead to learn how to become stronger and better."

It has been suggested that 🅠the next piece of the puzzle for Aston Martin is to recruit F1’s top driꦛver.

It would mean Verstappen would drive a Newey-designed ൲car once again.

"People talk about these t🉐hings a lot more than I do,” he said about moving to Aston Martin in 2026.

“I'm very relaxed, I just think abou🧸t driving and tryi🌱ng to understand my problems and improve.

“Then I𝔉 go home and lꦓive my life. I'm pretty calm about the future.

“It's very simple for me, I like what I do and as long as I enjoy it I'll stay here and I'll continue to drive in F1 too. 
“If I want to go elsewhere, I will go elsewhere.

“It's not in my mind at the moment."
