He will remain involved in and committed to this exciting project until its completion.

So have we all been massively gnoshed off by the RB shit talking PR game with the rumours he's joining another F1 team (possibly Ferrari)? Or will he be able to "complete" this exciting project before next season?

He says in his letter that the RB17 hypercar is "in final stages". I expect this is something RB insisted on for his statement, as they've been using almost identical language in their press releases on the matter. They want wealthy buyers to know it's still a Newey joint.

I don't think an aerodynamics specialist has much to do in the final stages of a production road car, his input would likely have been much earlier in the process.

Also, thanks to ... Eddie Jordan, my close friend and manager.

Didn't know EJ was involved, he's always sneaking his way into these sorts of shenanigans!

EJ is always talking about cycling with Newey in Capetown on his podcast.

When the rumors started flying EJ played it off "I wouldn't want to violate our friendship by asking for insider details".

Meanwhile he was probably working directly with Newey on this move the whole time.

EJ is a true old school F1 owner, a sneaky snake with a love of the sport.

I'm also noticing the specific call out for Christian Horner's family...
