The aerodynamic development, but the pressure's all on Honda.

So I imagine if there's an Alonso bombshell to come, which I think is more likely than a Verstappen bombshell, and that could trigger some play underneath in terms of drivers who might want to get themselves into that Alonso seat for the future.

It won't come until he's had an experience of that new Honda engine because the ball is firmly in their court as far as that team is concerned.

There'll be big expectations and pressure on Honda to find a step that can kind of match what the the chassis side is finally doing.

And I don't have huge faith that Honda can do it, knowing how long it's taken them historically to get up to the pace and the unprecedented fact of them working under a cost cap for the first time.

I just don't

don't think they necessarily gonna nail it, certainly not in one step.

So Alonso will probably think, well let's just see how Zanvolt goes, whether this engine is any good or not, and then I'll make my decision.

Unless he's just decided over the summer, I hate Formula One regardless.

I don't care about what Aston Martin and Honda is doing.

I'm off, in which case then I think it'll trigger some dominoes.

Yeah, absolutely.

And he he

Well, whatever he does, he'll want to keep his options open, kind of like I think he did going into the Williams project in the first place.

I think his original deal was structured around, Well, I'll take you into twenty six, but I reserve the right to be able to look around for a better option or possibly go to a top team if one comes calling in that season.

That's not going to happen.

I think the Verstappen stuff is with eyes on twenty eight if it happens at all.

Or he'll just do

A new deal where he is.

He'll use his claws that he can activate as leverage to get more.
