Adrian Newey, the genius behind Red Bull Racing's success, may be leaving after two decades.

Since 2006, Newey's designs propelled Red Bull to dominance, clinching all 13 of their world titles.

Rumors swirl about Newey's departure, igniting speculation amidst his contracted role until at least 2025.

His potential exit raises questions about Red Bull’s future competitiveness.

Potential exit aligns with turbulence at Red Bull amid allegations against Christian Horner.
