    Let’s face the RB car is Newey

    That seems incredibly insulting to the other supremely talented engineers at red bull. One man alone cant develop a car. What he can is guide a team if talented designers. See how merc are still pretty much where they were last year in competitiveness even though James Allison was added back to the technical department.

    Adrian newey is the difference maker, not the sole reason for success.

      Your last sentence is essentially no different to OP.

      The Red Bull car is Newey because he makes the difference.

      It’s a team sport but there’s no need to preface every statement with the credits at the end of the movie.

      We know it’s the director’s film.

      We know it’s Newey’s car.

      We can say either of those statements without diminishing the work of others.

      Unless you want to tell me I need to know the names of the 3rd AD and 2nd Dolly grip for each film in the best directors category, you shouldn’t be trying to manufacture offence when someone says the “Global Chief Technical Officer” is responsible for the car.
