Yeah.

Yeah, the reason we signed Esteban, I wanted Esteban was his work ethic, right?

And he's clearly very, very fast when he has the car he likes.

You know, he's a proven quality race winner, podium finisher, scored so many points over the last 10 years.

And I know that he doesn't leave any stones unturned.

And as a team to grow, somebody like that is what I needed.

And I knew that we are signing Oli Beerman, which is exciting.

I really needed somebody with experience but still young enough and really hungry for success.

And then Esteban was the one.

So that's why I signed him.

And then especially earlier in the season, he was doing really, really well.

But again, you know, from that moment in Melbourne,

He gave us the data, he gave us the feedback we needed to make basically a decision how we're gonna, let's say, modify the car for Suzuka, right?

So he played a pivotal role in that and also Shanghai.

He drove really, really well and scored points for us.

So when he's got the car, or even Melbourne, of course, he didn't have the car, but he was very, very good at giving us feedback.

And then when the car was much better in Shanghai, it's the same car, but just because the truck hasn't got the input to provoke these dynamics.

So the car was behaving okay.

At that instance, Esteban was brilliant, right?

Then scored our first points of the season.
