I think people are misunderstanding the timings. This is my understanding:
1. Newey is leaving the F1 program effective immediately, but will still attend races.
2. His sole job is to finish the hypercar.
3. He will leave Red Bull completely some time in the 1st quarter 2025.
4. No gardening leave.
So he'll be able to join another F1 team at the latest April 1, 2025. He'll have time to influence his new team's 2026 design.

Not too terrible, I guess.

It's even less blue than I was expecting after the sneak peek. 
The drivers' helmets and suits will be the bluest part of the special 70th anniversary livery.

I think it looks awesome. I liked the light blue when McLaren used it as well though, so I’m biased.

Didn't see anything about the gardening leave anywhere either, I'm guessing it is almost starts right now while he is working on the hypercar for F1 purposes.
If he is available to join any team in Q2 2025, he will be able to definitely help build the car for the 2026 regs.

This “blue” Ferrari is a let down. They’ve been hyping this up for almost two weeks only to roll out the same red car but with blue wheel caps.

My RedBull fan boi coping mechanism is to tell myself the next set of reg changes will make cars engine dominant so Newey won't be as important. No further questions at this time.

I hate everything about Miami having a race. I hope it ends in the next year or two. Give one back to Europe instead. Keep Vegas and Austin and call it a day.

At least Miami is on at a watchable time unlikely Vegas. The Vegas race may as well be in Asia.

Meh, Indianapolis needs its F1 race back. Swap Miami there and call it a day.

Does Ferrari make sense for Newey after he's had his fill of internal politics with Red Bull.

I think so and hate that Hamilton will benefit from the move
Would be interesting to see him go to AM with Honda coming on in 26... Max jumps to join him.
Max and Alonso

Newey was leaving bc of Christian. The woman in question in the investigation was allegedly the personal assistant of Newey.

Any update on if she's still suspended?
There was no further updates around the Helmut/Jos involvment in the investigation and her suspension.
Horner has posted about Newey today and their friendship.
