Andreas Seidl has shared his thoughts on the prospect of the Audi team hiring a talismanic name like Adrian Newey...
Sauber CEO Andreas Seidl says F1 is “not a one-man show” amid speculation that Audi could join to the race to sign Adrian Newey from Red Bull.
“It’s clear that there are one or two names in the Formula 1 circus that you would like to have in the team,” Seidl said, when asked if Audi would seek to hire Newey or a high-profile signing of similar stature.“On the other hand, Formula 1 is not a one-man show. It is important to us that we put together a strong team with the right attitude and the aim of achieving something together.
While the burgeoning Audi squad is unlikely to tempt Newey over the big-money offers reportedly coming from the likes of Ferrari and Aston Martin, Newey did commit his future to a young challenger when he signed with Red Bull in 2006 – the team whom he helped transform into the behemoth it is today.Seidl also confirmed the current employee count at Sauber, and said the Swiss team is not yet operating at the F1 budget cap set at $135million – leaving room for further financial growth under Audi.
