    Yeah, but AM kinda need a team principal right now .

    Anyway, I’ll keep treating it as rumour for the time being, but according to BBC sports :

    However, Wheatley’s existing contract with Audi means it could be some time before he is able to join Aston Martin.

      Strike that… apparently it’s not a rumour any more:

      https://www.bbc.com/sport/formula1/articles/ckg05py1zneo

      Audi team principal Jonathan Wheatley has left the team with immediate effect.

      and

      He will have to serve a period of ‘gardening leave’ before joining another team, the length of which will have to be negotiated between himself, Audi and potentially a future employer.
