I'll find the source, but I remember reading that Newey and Toto don't get along, particularly from Newey's side. So, if Newey were looking for the kind of challenge you mentioned (which makes a lot of sense, by the way), Mercedes would probably be the last place he'd consider. It could still be untrue or just clickbait, but...
Found that for you anon! (Because I actually posted it already before… 🤭)
“He doesn’t have a particularly high opinion of Toto Wolff” 🤭👀
And since he actually happened to sign with Aston for real…
Wonder what made Adrian change his mind…
