Adrian Newey’s Italy visit intrigued many amid Red Bull rumors, but he did not meet Ferrari, choosing Mugello instead.

The mystery of Adrian Newey’s recent visit to Italy has been resolved.

Amid swirling rumors of a power struggle at Red Bull, seeing F1’s most revered designer at Bologna Airport – just an hour from Maranello – sparked much speculation in Italy and the media.

However, the 65-year-old engineer was not in town to meet with Ferrari.

Instead, he spent a day at the Mugello track.

Owned by Ferrari, Mugello saw Newey clad in Red Bull Racing team gear for a track day with KR Motorsports, where he took the wheel of various sports cars and GTs.

The Red Bull technical director is now in Shanghai for the Chinese GP.
