However, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner, believes Newey will take time out from the sport first before he makes his next move.

Even during his spare time, the legendary designer cannot stay away from F1 cars competing in the iconic Monaco Historique weekend.

The weekend showcases classic cars from motorsport history in a variety of races, separated by the era the cars competed in.

The engineer had a disappointing qualifying and started eighth on the grid behind the Ferrari of Meiners.

Newey’s Lotus was designed by one of the other great designers in the sport, Colin Chapman, who founded Lotus in 1952.
