I think he’d probably achieved everything he’d ever wanted to achieve at Red Bull and wanted a new challenge. He does have a history with Aston Martin and even still drives around in a V12 VH Vantage. He may even like the colour green.
Indeed I also think that BBC article is highly suggestive.
Their only link is 'high-level sources close to Red Bull and Newey'. That could be anyone, even people from not within the RB organisation...

I think Erik van Haren's remark/analysis that Newey thanked Horner as a business partner and friend in his departure declaration but not mentioned Helmut Marko might shed a different light on the situation. Perculiar it is nontheless.
Also letting a deal or business agreement where tens of millions, if not hundeds of millions are involved in depend on some alledged relationship between a secretary and a boss... I don't know...

That said, it doesn't matter anymore. Newey is now running part of AMR (development) basically
