RED BULL design chief Adrian Newey is set to leave the team following the controversy surrounding team principal Christian Horner.
The BBC have reported that Newey has informed Red Bull that he wants to move on after almost 20 years with the team.

Newey, 65, is said to be “unsettled” by the situation at Red Bull in the wake of Horner’s sexting scandal.
And it is reported that his decision to call an end to his time with Red Bull can be traced back to the situation involving Horner.
Red Bull cleared Horner of any wrongdoing after an internal investigation into alleged sexual harassment and coercive and abusive behaviour by a female employee.
The unnamed complainant has since been suspended by the team and has launched an appeal against the decision.
