Adrian Newey is more involved in the design of next year's Red Bull car, according to Red Bull team boss Christian Horner.
In recent seasons Newey taken something of a step back from Red Bull, focussing on an America's Cup project as well as a road car with Aston Martin, but Horner says the Briton's interest in Formula One is returning with new aerodynamic regulations set to be introduced next year.
"We are back where we were in 2014," Horner told Germany's Auto Motor und Sport. "Adrian withdrew himself somewhat with the RB12 (Red Bull's 2016 car). I would say that his share of the current car is only 20 per cent, which shows how well our engineering office is doing."
"The new rules have Adrian fully motivated again. With next year's car, I would say he is back up at 50 per cent," Horner added.
