Episode description

The most successful designer in F1 history, Adrian Newey, pops into the Talking Bull Airstream to discuss the reaction to the launch of the RB17 hypercar at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

He shares his pride in the speeds the RB17 has been getting on track, how he’s still tweaking the spec, and how the RB17 will continue to be part of his life, even after he leaves the team in early 2025. 

Adrian also reflects on his time with the team, recalling the early cars he designed, and the sweetest race victories over the years.   He also answers fan’s questions about where he gets his inspiration from, and crucially - does he ever experience “writer’s block” as a design engineer?
