Fernando Alonso has revealed that Aston Martin part-owner Lawrence Stroll suspects team bosses will struggle to 'control' incoming design guru Adrian Newey.

On Tuesday during the press session ahead of the F1 75 Live event at the O2 Arena, Fernando Alonso was asked who he thought would contribute more to their respective teams, Lewis Hamilton at Ferrari,

I don’t know what Hamilton is going to contribute or add to Ferrari, surely it will be less than what a designer can contribute.”

Fernando Alonso believes Adrian Newey's arrival at Aston Martin will overshadow Lewis Hamilton's move to Ferrari. Alonso emphasizes the importance of car design in Formula 1, suggesting Hamilton's impact will be less significant than Newey's.

Fernando Alonso has revealed that Lawrence Stroll said Aston Martin will not be able to “control” Adrian Newey when he joins next month. Newey makes his long-awaited arrival to Aston next month but there has already been plenty of discussion about the designer in the Silverstone HQ.
