suppose the other way to look at it
to play devil's advocate is to reimagine this exact scenario but it's happening in the winter rather than the summer of the first season.
Would the reaction of puzzlement, bewilderment, or maybe Loudon's been hard done by, regardless of the fact of whether he accepts it or not?
If they were making this change at the end of the first season, would we be saying, oh, you know, that's a bit bold, a bit aggressive, we're not sure about the strategy, or would we be saying, oh, actually, based on how decent their first season is,
this is the right thing to do to move into phase two and get someone who's got more experience running a manufacturer team, who's got experience from the regulatory side with the FIA, who's got experience of running a team under the cost cost cap, even though nascently, would we just look on this whole thing differently?
I mean, there is always hope, especially in this season, where unreliability can play a role and has played a role for both of them.
But I think in terms of pure performance, it's starting to look like as goose is cooked, as we like to say in the UK.
Just because of that that underlying performance that Antonelli is showing, it the margin is obviously not as big as it's looked.
at times because Russell has had particular technical problems on his side of the garage.
You know, he calls it an unprecedented season in his whole racing career, never mind his F one career.
The start line thing in Hungary that he hadn't had before, or not since testing at least.
This deployment thing that Mercedes says would all him, then said was partly him and partly us, but still is a lot you, so you need to sort it out.
Try and think of a race, the last race in this season where you genuinely felt that Russell had the edge over Anthony over the whole weekend.
Not just in
Not just in qualifying like like Montreal where he nabbed the pole right at the end, or Austria where he played the yellow flags better.
Both of those weekends come the race.
Antonelli was the one really digging at him or showing the superior race base until what happened happened.
So I really feel like you have to go right back to sort of Japan before the enforced break, where Russell was more on top of things than Antonelli, ever since Miami, where
Where he beat uh Norris to victory, it's just felt like Antonelli has kind of been inevitable.
Even in the races he's been behind, he's looked eventually more impressive than his teammate.
