Don’t miss… <\/strong> Norris rubs salt into Perez’s wound with brutal dig that may upset Red Bull star[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cI love how understated he is, I love how immensely humble he is. He should be knighted, end of. It\u2019s not even a discussion in my book.\u201d<\/p>\n Red Bull were named the F1 Constructors\u2019 Champions for the second time in a row in Japan following their dominant campaign, and Newey\u2019s role in such success cannot be understated by those within the camp. However, it remains to be seen whether the technical officer can continue to stake his claim for plaudits from outside of the Formula One sphere next season, and if a hat-trick of Constructors\u2019 Championships would receive the praise that is warranted.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

He continued: \u201cAdrian is like the Einstein of F1. I really understood his brain during a test day when we were trying something new on the car.<\/p>\n \u201cAt one stage, he asked me if I thought it would be possible to drive an F1 car with two feet on top of each other, with the brake on the bottom and the throttle on top of the brake, so the car could be sleeker and slicker on the front end.” I was like, ‘Physically that\u2019s not possible.’ He looked at me and wrote something down. He said, ‘I want to change something.’ I said, ‘What?’ He said, ‘It’s between the steering wheel and the engine.’ I said, ‘That’s me!’<\/p>\n “Basically, if you give him a free hand, he wants to have a robot inside the car or something, so the balance of the human factor and him thinking only in numbers and data is quite extraordinary to work with. He pushes the boundaries.”<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/73\/590x\/secondary\/4987768.jpg?r=1696161209813\")
